The Down Town Sailing Series is on its 6th year. The courses are a parade around Elliot Bay in Down Town Seattle in front of all the luxury hotels and water front restraints and back up to the finish. It does not end there. Check out this Video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=erPgS6-eFww .They have a fully hosted party with Beer, Wine, Sodas, Snacks, and Grilled Hot Dogs for everyone. Not to mention the live band! This party goes until 10:30pm, and if you have spent any time in the Pacific Northwest in the summer you know that it is barely dark at 10:30pm. This is truly a not to be missed event.
Ullman Sails and Elliot Bay Yacht Sales were the Weekly sponsor for this opening night to summer sailing. The Band was Gertrude’s Hearse, an incedible local band with a with a huge following. Ullman Sails provided over 400 free tee-shirts for this event as well.
If you get a chance to go sailing in Seattle this summer you will have to join the crowd at the Down Town Sailing Series and partake in the summer fun.
