The seminar, designed and conducted by nationally recognized sailors, will provide novice and experienced boaters with information and skills for boat preparation, handling heavy weather, recommended safety equipment, emergencies at sea, and preparing for sailing off-shore. The program is open to cruising and racing skippers, crew and family, recreational power boaters, and commercial fishermen.

Having done a lot of team racing in college, Rusty was eager to try the "new" digital 'N' course, opening up a whole new set of team tactics introduced by clinic leader Steve Hunt. Working with Sailing Foundation Board member and fellow Thistle fleet member Joe Burcar, Lhamon and Burcar purchased one of Steve Hunt's DVDs ("Teaching Team Racing 2008") and put together a plan to introduce team racing through a series of three (free) lectures, leading to bi-weekly on-the-water practices at Sail Sandpoint. The program was run through Corinthian Yacht Club (CYC) of Seattle, but was open to anyone who was interested, regardless of yacht club or fleet affiliation.

THISTLE GPS UNITS In late 2008, the Seattle Thistle fleet received an anonymous donation that could only be accepted if processed through a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization. The problem was that neither the Thistle fleet nor the fleet's host club (Corinthian Yacht Club of Seattle) had 501(c)(3) status. The Sailing Foundation was able to step in and help the fleet accept the donation.
