Cuttyhunk Weekend Fun Cruise | June 27–28

Ahoy NEMA sailors,

NEMA invites you to join a weekend cruise to Cuttyhunk Island on Saturday–Sunday, June 27–28.

This relaxed early‑summer gathering is a great chance to cruise together, explore the island, and enjoy the season with fellow multihull sailors.

Cruise Details

• Destination: Cuttyhunk Island, between Buzzard's Bay and Vineyard Sound, Massachusetts
• Dates: Saturday afternoon through Sunday morning, June 27–28
• Rally Point: Cuttyhunk Pond
• Overnight (optional): Anchoring or mooring in the pond

⚓ Tentative Plan

• Saturday:

• • Arrive by 2 PM if possible
  • Optional fun race around the Cuttyhunk tower for those interested
  • Others are welcome to enjoy the island, beaches, and town at a relaxed pace
  • 6 PM Traditional clam bake and/or BBQ on the beach
  • Optional overnight.  It's fine if you come only for Saturday afternoon
• Sunday
• • NEMA breakfast at the Cuttyhunk Fishing Club

Plans will remain flexible and weather‑dependent, based on interest and conditions.

ℹ️ Please Note

• This is a participant‑organized cruising event, not a race (except the purely optional fun sail)
• Each skipper is responsible for their vessel, crew, mooring reservation (optional) and navigation
• Final details and coordination will be shared with participating boats closer to the date

Please RSVP if you’re interested, even tentatively, so we can gauge participation and share updates.

Also please let us know if you need crew, or if you have extra space aboard.  Some NEMA members have expressed interest in participating, but it is too far to bring their boat.

Please direct any questions, comments or suggestions to:

We hope you’ll join us for a fun and social weekend at Cuttyhunk.

Fair winds,
John
