IL - Offshore Race - Chicago to Waukegan Yacht Club

Ken Hopson of Des Plaines, IL sailed and sent this picture of the Chicago to Waukegan race with the annual, post-race raft up held on Summer Sailstice.  Waukegan harbor is just about an hour North (driving) of Chicago and is home to a avid sailing scene with an active racing, cruising and junior sailing scene.  

Check out Waukegan Yacht Club to see more and per their website, if you're a yacht club member, you're invited to stop by.  Founded in 1927 the yacht club has this to say about the club:  The Waukegan Yacht Club is a private Members’ Only Club located on Lake Michigan in Lake County, Illinois, approximately 35 miles north of Chicago – the Best Seat on the Lake. As a member of the National Association of Yachting Clubs visiting members of other clubs are welcome.

 

Stop by for Summer Sailstice 2013.
