No rain, all gain! 🌞
The 2025 Spring Work Party on April 12–13 was a massive success — and for the first time in years, the skies stayed dry!

💪 52 Members and 30 boats showed up and got to work, knocking off a huge list of spring prep and maintenance at Ekins. New Members jumped in with both feet, and we got a ton done — though some major dock projects are still in progress.

1. building what’s shaping up to be a truly epic outhouse
2. Hard at work on the Annex dock repair
3. Overhauled the Galley and served up a next-level lunch

Special thanks to the Gibsons crew for power washing the docks in early April — giving us a clean start! And to the team, who kicked off the ramp stanchion replacement, aiming to wrap up by June.
