 Here in greater Vallarta we have a serious need, due to the significant negative impact of recent events. No tourists means no jobs, and no food to feed families. We can all help by the simplest of gestures - a little or a lot of basic food items. The Vallarta Yacht Club is committed to be a food collection point. Thank you all who have donated food items or money to buy food.
Two loads of food have been collected and distributed through community organizations, making sure it is going to needy families. The next few months will bring even more need as we head in to the summer months and "low season".

Commodore John's s/v Break'nWind becomes the first to join the Club's Boat Photo Program
Several years ago, the club gave the opportunity for members to buy a stool for our Cheers bar at $200 each. Members quickly signed up and the club bar was surrounded by nice stools fitted with brass plaques, engraved with the member's name.
The House Committee has created another opportunity for immortality for both you and your boat: the Member Boat Photo Program. Around the perimeter of both the inside and outside patio of the club there is a small wall space just below the roof line, perfect for photos. Members will now be able to enjoy a photo of their boat, professionally framed, complete with their name and their boat's name, engraved on a brass plaque and mounted in the club. |

 On Saturday morning, April 25th, VYC’s young sailors gathered outside the Club preparing themselves and their boats for the day’s series of races preceding the Spring Junior Sailing Fundraiser Dinner. When Coach Maria Elena Vivas received the word from Randy Hough, the PRO aboard his boat Yamaya, the Beginner Optimist division boarded their boats and headed out the harbor and on toward the race course. Following the two Beginner races, and when the usual afternoon breezes built to 15-18 knots, the Optimist Intermediates and Advanced sailors were joined by a single 420 team for their series of four races.

 This season's Fishing Frenzies wrapped up on Friday, March 13th and was followed by a great Fish Fry at the Club.
The Jubileeta won the March 13 VYC Fishing Frenzy. Their total “edible catch” was two Sierra mackerel and one red snapper. It was another miracle of the loaves and fishes. Rudy was able to serve more than 75 club members all the fish they could eat with these three fish???? Bill Ligget announced that this would be the last Fishing Frenzy for the season. The Jubileeta was the overall winner for the 2008/2009 season. The next Frenzy will be in October or November 2009. Check the website in October for details
