2009 Wauquiez Rendezvous

Port Hudson Marina, Port Townsend, WA

Wauquiez flags

What a great rendezvous, so many great Wauquiez boats and sweet people!  This year I got to sail up to Port Townsend with Mike Ayers on his Centurian 45 - La Volante Frances Jane.  So there are a few extra shots from the trip up and back, thanks Mike.

If you have been to one of these Rendezvous you'll probably recognize some of the same crews from previous years, and see improvements in their fine yachts.   Always informative, Ken and Andrew gave a presentation about Seekers Vic-Maui race.   Sam got a fine race started, with Guy managing to trap and slow down Ken for a few minutes, till almost everyone ran out of air up by the mill.   There was also a Port Townsend Classic Mariners Regatta, so I included a few of those pics too.   Colin and crew made a fine breakfast and we all got to see lots of different models of Wauquiez boats and clever owner improvements.   What a great group of good helpful folks, who clearly love their Wauquiez boats!

Organized by the Wauquiez Owners Association and supported by Mike Locatell of Discovery Yachts this continues to be one of the best rendezvous on the West coast.   If you missed it, plan on coming next year. . .
