Hey fellow Eclipse owners. CLR (Carlyle Lake Rendezvous) is fast approaching. If you can make June 21 - 24 in southern Illinois, you will not be disappointed. Carlyle Lake is a sailing lake. Big and empty during the week. We stay at the marina at the South end of the Lake (West Access Dam and Marina) and there is a small motel on site should you choose to not spend nights onboard. There is a nice clubhouse with bathrooms, showers and a kitchen so you can make b-fast if your want. We generally sail to a destination or have a "make believe" race. Perhaps even a night sail. We usually go out for dinner together and there is a fun night (Thursday) that caps off the week. Some sailors stay on extra days to continue to sail. I have attended 2 times - once with the Admiral and we had a great time. It is a good few days of sailing and comradery. Spouses are encouraged to attend. Questions PM me and I will be happy to answer, if I can. Also, under destinations there is a CLR series of posts started by Steve, who is in charge of CLR. Actually Sarah is in charge and delegates to Steve. LOL Sail On Al
I had hoped to make it to this but it doesn't look like it will work out. Once I get the boat back from repairs for the delaminated cockpit sole I need to get the trailer fixed, the disc brakes are apparently contaminated with grease and barely work.
