Harbor 20 Fleet 1 Owner-Members,

It’s time to vote for our 2021 fleet directors.  Because of COVID-19, we can’t vote the way we normally do, in person at the annual fleet awards dinner.  Instead, each of you will soon receive an email entitled “Vote now: Harbor 20 Fleet 1 – Election of 2021 Directors.”  In that email, you can click the “To vote, visit” link to go to the voting website and cast your ballot.

Please vote by Dec. 15, as the election closes that day.  Results will be announced on Dec. 16.

Register by 9 am Wednesday, September 23 for the Harbor 20 Fleet 1 Championship!

Fleet 1

The registration deadline is Wednesday 9 am for the Harbor 20 Fleet 1 Championships hosted by Newport Harbor Yacht Club this weekend, September 25 and 26. Click here to register.

Drinks and appetizers will be served at Newport Harbor Yacht Club on the deck upstairs immediately after racing on both Saturday and Sunday.  Everyone in the Fleet is invited to the social gathering after racing on Saturday and to the Awards Ceremony on Sunday. We anticipate that the Awards Ceremony will commence one hour after the last race. Face masks and social distancing are required.

Because it is unlikely that we will be able to hold the Fleet 1 Annual Meeting and Awards Banquet this year, the trophy presentation for the regatta will include the annual awards including First Mate, Grand Master, High Point, Rain or Shine, Phyllis Drayton trophy, Phil Thompson Mentorship trophy, and the Arthur Strock Service Award.  Please plan to stay for the awards and refreshments.

We apologize for the short window however; the decision was just made to present at Championships instead of the usual awards event in December.

✨It is good to share with others your abilities and even better to reveal to them their own✨

FOR SALE – H20 #115

Current Ads

Sale Pending…

I purchased the boat from Tom Schock at WD Schock in March of 2010 as the second owner.  This boat was originally day sailed at Big Bear Lake and then moved to Elephant Butte Lake in southern New Mexico after purchase.  This is a fresh water only boat.  The bottom paint is new, Pettit Vivid white with Pettit epoxy barrier.  The mast and standing rigging were replaced at the time of sale.  A swim ladder was also purchased from WD Schock.  The spinnaker was purchased new in 2010, Elliott/Pattison asymmetric spinnaker, and has never been used.   The mainsail, jib and running rigging are original.  The trailer tires are probably original as well.  The motor controller has been rebuilt and the electric motor runs well.  The two marine batteries have been on a battery maintainer.

The boat is currently stored at Elephant Butte Lake in my building and has been not been sailed in about 3 years.

Asking $ 16,000.00
