• Opening Day of Boating

  • When
    Sat, May 03, 2025

  Register

  The theme of Opening Day this year, sponsored by Seattle Yacht Club, is Back to the 80’s. 

  Plans are still in flux but we'll meet for breakfast at a location to be determined where our costumes will be donned and boat numbers dispensed. Without a boat number, you can't enter the parade. Then we'll boat to Portage Bay where we await our turn to enter the Montlake Cut past the judges boats.

  We usually gather later for a picnic.

  Steve Snider is our Opening Day chairman.
