Boat Launch @ The Boat Shed

OLAS

 

 

 

 

 

The Oarlock and Sail Wooden Boat Club will be launching its spring fleet on Saturday, April 14 between 12:00 and 16:00 and ALL ARE WELCOME!!  The boats will slip their moorings and club members will have a chance to take the boats out for the first time this season!

Members are encouraged to bring life jackets, their beverages of choice and barbeque-ables for the grill.

Non-members are welcome to visit us dockside at the Maritime Museum’s Heritage Harbour, 1905 Ogden Ave, Vancouver to check out the shed, the fleet, and the club.

On another note: Membership fees are due for 2012.  They are $30.00 before April 30 and $40.00 after that.  Oarlock and Sail Boat Users Group fee remains $50.00 per year.  Still a steal of a deal.

Fraser River Skiff complete with new oars

The Fraser River Skiff at the Fraser River Discovery Centre in New Westminster has finally received its completed set of oars.  The leather collars on the oars were started at a club meeting last winter under the guidance of Dave Bradford of Alder Bay Boats.  Club members completed the oars in the subsequent weeks (months?), and now the oars are at their new home in the Fraser River Skiff.
