Sailing for Singles
The Northwest Riggers are a group of single
people that like to get together and enjoy themselves around sailing and
the water.
Weekly get together every Tuesday in
the bar at Ivars Salmon House.
Monthly business and potluck on the 2nd Friday of every
month.
New Year's Eve celebration, we typically are
on the water (or tied to a dock) for a potluck and overnight on the
boats.
Memorial Day, Labor Day
and the
Fourth of July (when it is close to a
weekend) we plan longer 2-night and 3-night sailing trips on Puget
Sound.
Summer Weekend Trips are usually planned once
or twice a month from April to October.
Holiday Potluck Dinners are planned for most
of the major holidays.
Duck Dodge Races, although not sponsored by
us, usually has one or two club boats participating. These races are
held every Tuesday during the summer.
Goose Bump Races are held every Sunday during
January and February.

We
meet every Tuesday at Ivars Salmon House, 401 NE Northlake Way, Seattle,
98105 for Happy Hour about 5pm to 6:30pm.
It's a social hour where we plan impromptu day / evening sails, or other
activities, or just enjoy the conversation. We discuss the upcoming
sails and make sure crew get on boats. During Duck Dodge racing season
(May - Sept) several boats participate and there is usually space to get on
a boat. Potlucks are held the 2nd Friday of the month usually at the
home of one of our members. After dinner we have a general business
meeting to plan cruises and events. Weekend cruises and day sails are
set up for several months in advance. During the winter we sponsor
GooseBump Races on Lake Union.
