South Seas | southseas.comTopic: The annual Memorial Day Celebration May 24th-26th.
So far we have 6 boats registered. Its not to late.
As we reflect on Memorial Day, let us remember its true significance: honoring the courageous men and women who gave their lives in service to our country. What better way to pay tribute than by decorating our boats for the occasion? Their service and sacrifice are the bedrock of the freedoms we cherish today. The Isles Yacht Club has always commemorated this solemn occasion with reverence and unity, and this year’s heartfelt tribute continued that proud tradition.

Currently they do not have dockage available at Davis Island Yacht Club but they have suggested making arrangements for dockage at the Tampa Convention Center Marina. You need to use DockWa to make arrangements. You should mention that you are with IYC. Glenn Mayer has already made his reservations. He suggest anyone that desires to go on the cruise signup.

Topic: Bahamas Bound Presentation
I was asked to post the Bahamas Bound presentation
This is a PG Islanders Club event on January 18th. The Isles Yacht Club is not a part of it. However I thought it would be worthwhile to post. It is open to the public. Please see attached pdf.

Hi Mr. Leyshon,
The clubhouse is open and fully operational for dining. However, our docks are completely closed. We are waiting for engineers to come inspect them next week. From there, the club will be putting together a plan for repair. We are hoping that the docks will be functional by early December, but as of now we do not have an actual date. Please check back with us at the end of November to see what progress has been made.
Thank you for reaching out! We hope to welcome you back soon!

Hurricane Damage Reports:
It is possible that you sent me a report and I missed it. If that happened, please send Carl Schultz another update. We will have further updates to report.Key Biscayne Yacht Club
I’m happy to report that KBYC suffered no damage and is operating normally.

Naples Sailing and Yacht Club has sustained no damages, and the marina and dining services are fully operational.
Bruce Harris
Carlouel Yacht Club
Thanks for your email. Unfortunately, the damage to Carlouel from the recent hurricanes and flooding was extensive. All facilities remain closed at this time. We are still working through the process of mitigation and dry out, so predicting the estimated timeframe for return of dining, pool and/or marina access is difficult to pin down at this time. I expect we’ll have more information to share at the FCYC meeting in Key Biscayne on 11/9/24.
Best regards.

St. Petersburg Yacht Club
Like many clubs along the West Coast, SPYC has been impacted by Hurricanes Helene and Milton. As a result, we will not be accepting reciprocal club members through at least November 1, 2024. At that time, we will reevaluate our status.
Please share this update with your members, and thank you for your understanding during this time.
Also see notes and statements below.
LIMITED
2. Is your marina open? NO, ON GOING CONSTRUCTION DOWNTOWN.
a. If so, what limitations exist? Fuel? Pump-out? Electricity?
Water?
3. If you are not open, or have limitations, have you received any
estimate on the length of those limitations?
4. Is your pool open? NO
5. Please let us know if your club has no damage to report. SEE COMMENTS BELOW:On Monday and Tuesday, we will began removing carpets from the lower level of the club, which sustained water damage during Hurricane Helene.
Currently, our downtown clubhouse is still without three-phase power, which is needed to operate kitchen equipment, air conditioning, elevators, and lighting throughout the building. Unfortunately, the transformer responsible for this power sustained an electrical fire on Friday. We are working closely with Duke Energy to assess the damage and develop a plan to restore power to both the transformer and the club.
Coral Ridge Yacht Club
Gentleman,
Coral Reef is fully open for FCYC reciprocity. There would be no limitations regarding visits during this challenging time.
Coral Reef sustained no damage.

St. Charles Yacht Club
Our fixed docks had some power pedestals damaged. We estimate a four-foot storm surge with Helene and a six-foot surge with Milton. The floating docks performed as advertised. We had no structural damage to our club. All our operations, including dining and our marina are back to normal function. I have not heard of any complications on the Okeechobee Waterway.

Naples Yacht Club
Naples Yacht Club did not suffer significant damage during the recent hurricanes. Operations are normal.
Smyrna Yacht Club
Smyrna Yacht club had NO damage from the recent storms. Excellent work from our staff and member volunteers. A lot of flooding, trees down and some power outages in the New Smyrna area. The club is open and ready for reciprocity.
The Field Club
The Field Club did not fare well with the recent storms , has been severely damaged and is closed. The marina had the most damage with many docks , including the fuel dock, and boats destroyed. We will contact you when things settle down and we get a better assessment of our situation. I am sure other clubs are doing the same. For now could you communicate that we are closed and the marina is not available.
Thanks,
Steve Duerwachter, DirectorTampa Yacht & Country Club
TYCC sustained significant damage from Hurricanes Helene and Milton. These two storms brought water into the club, resulting in the need to remove much of the flooring throughout the main clubhouse. The Pavilion, pool, Telltale Pool Bar, and Dockmaster’s Office were heavily impacted by the rising waters. The marina also saw significant destruction, with several docks, finger piers, plumbing, and electrical conduits torn apart.
Though the tennis and fitness facilities weathered Helene’s fury with minimal impact, Milton brought his own devastation, damaging lighting, netting, and the courts with torrential rain and winds. Our equestrian facilities also suffered considerable damage, but thankfully, all of its residents were safely relocated to secure facilities ahead of both storms.
The club’s foresight to procure foul weather mitigation systems saved us from a much worse outcome. = Immediately following both storms, our contracted disaster recovery team, staff, and board members were on site, working to begin the thorough and necessary remediation process.
Davis Island Yacht Club
Davis Island Yacht Club held up extremely well during Hurricane Milton. The clubhouse, pool restrooms, and sail pavilion had little or no damage. B and C docks are in good condition. The road to the club is safe to navigate. Water has been restored to the clubhouse but not the docks.

Bradenton Yacht Club
A message from Bradenton Yacht Club:
Our Dining is fully operational and we welcome FCYC Clubs. Our pool is also open.
Unfortunately, Bradenton Yacht Club’s Grounds, Marina, Transient wall, and tennis courts have sustained extensive damage. Until further notice, we cannot accommodate reciprocity via arrival by boat as we have no power to our Longwall, as well as our Dockmaster’s Office is no longer operational. We thank you in advance for your patience as we work to rebuild these areas.
Kind Regards,

Topic: Venice Yacht Club Update
Venice YC has made a lot of progress the last week. The docks are getting repaired and are almost completed and the dock electric should be up within the week. Once I get my computer and phones back, I will be able to communicate better and touch base. The club should also be back open fully within the next week or so. The club and marine both got hit pretty good with the last two storms, but we are working hard to get everything back up and running. The tiki opened tonight so we are making progress!
Thanks,
Jeff Towers
Dock Master
SPREAD THE NEWS!
Dear Members,
As we navigate through these tough times, I am so grateful to you and our staff for all the hard work and commitment to our club. I hope you and your families are doing well.
In an effort to keep the full membership informed, please help me share this message with as many as possible, since I am not able to send out an email blast due to Comcast being down.
Saturday we will open bar from 3pm to 7pm and offer Happy Hour 3-5 PM. We wont be able to offer a menu, but will have a food station with self serve finger foods, very similar to Boaters at the Bar. We will have a nice party with live music starting at 3pm!
Sunday we will not offer any food and beverage services and we plan to open Tuesday as scheduled.
Thank you all.
