  STYC's First San Juan Island Cruise!!!

  July 3rd - 6th, 2025

  *Mandatory*  Skippers Meeting - June 26th 6:30 pm,

  with & by the Commodore's

  *Kristina will reach out to each of the skippers with further instructions.

  
  

  Please join us for Sloop Tavern Yacht Club's first time ever 4-day cruise to the San Juan Islands for the 4th of July. We will be heading up to Roche Harbor for their weekend full of events & their Fabulous Fireworks Display. Plan on dropping multiple anchors for a raft-up both July 3rd & 4th. We will then continue onto Deer Harbor Marina for July 5th. If you choose to carry on elsewhere on your own please feel free to do so. All boats should approach this cruise as Self-Reliant.

  We are posting this exploratory Island Cruise 3 weeks earlier than we normally do in order to have a solid boat list by June 2nd, and to simply give everyone time to arrange taking Thursday July 3rd off. If you cannot....we have reserved a handful of slips in Port Ludlow for the night of July 3rd. (You must call & make your reservation yourself - say you are with the July 3 STYC San Juan group).

  This would strategically put slower boats or those stuck in Seattle until 6 pm 7/3 ample time to tuck into Port Ludlow (on the 1st leg North-bound) by Twilight. Then carry on across the straits the following day, July 4th to meet those already on anchor in Roche Harbor. Use your AIS to locate the raft-up. And fly your Burgee!

  Again Please be aware that we NEED to have a total boat list *No Later* than Monday JUNE 2nd ! 

  Because we will be accommodating for different skill levels, variable straits conditions, & differing to no-familiarity of the San Juan Islands, there will be a *Mandatory* Skippers Meeting held by the STYC Commodores on:

  Thursday June 26th at 6:30 pm Fisheries Supply,

  1900 N Northlake Way Seattle.

  Virtual Skipper's Meeting Link

  This will be a Mandatory meeting for ALL planning to go North. And because boats move quickly from the waitlist to the "go" list, those on the waitlist are requested to be present at the June 26th meeting as well. We still urge you to sign-up on the Waitlist. We will give out Much more detailed information then. Much of this cruise is being strategized as we post this announcement...

  So.... To the Islands We Sail!!! We are Super excited to take this yacht club up to the Northern Salish Sea. Absolutely hoping You will join us for our very 1st San Juan Island Cruise!!

  See you on the 26th of June!

  Cheers!

  Kristina Southard, Cruise Chair

  Fun cruising time! Exciting Prizes!

  Travel to new and exciting locations including some of our reciprocal moorage partner yacht clubs, challenge yourself and enjoy more time on the water. When you register you will receive a Bingo card, then travel to 4 destinations and at least one Sloop Tavern Yacht Club Cruise.

  The center square is a wild card - buddy boat with at least one other STYC boat to a destination that is not on any participating buddy boat's bingo card! Alternately, this wildcard can be an STYC cruise that is not on your bingo card.

  Take a photo of yourself and/or your crew and/or your boat(s) at the location and email it to reciprocal@styc.org

  If you complete bingo on your card, you can continue to complete additional bingos on the same card or request another card for additional bragging rights, superlatives and prizes.
  

  Open to all voting Sloop Tavern Yacht Club members, as travel to STYC Reciprocals will be required, but you can complete bingo on someone else's boat.

  • All STYC Cruise Registrants and their guests are expected to adhere to STYC Community Guidelines during the event, and follow proper reciprocal etiquette
  • Many reciprocals require you to fly your club burgee, some require you to present your member card.
  • Not all bingo locations are suitable for all boats - you are always responsible for safe operation of your vessel
  • Cruising Bingo is free to participate, but does not include moorage costs, and reciprocal requirements vary. 
  • Some cruises may have additional costs that are optional based on the activity.

  Awards will be presented at the Holiday Party after our final cruise of the year, the Kingston Dark & Stormy
