Hunter 36 "Changes in Latitudes" Available in Long Beach as of Saturday, March 7, 2009

To close the gap between the Beneteau 31 and the Catalina 42 Mk II, HYC is relocating one of the 2008 Hunter 36's, "Changes in Latitudes," to the Harborlight Yacht Club in Long Beach. This will be the only monohull sailboat available in Long Beach with a bimini, which will prove to be a useful amenity for long sunny weekends in Catalina Island over the summer. The Hunter 36 will be available for rent in Long beach as of Saturday, March 7, 2009.

San Diego Lagoon 380 Catamaran "Changing Channels" Headed Back to Long Beach for Summer

Due to the high demand for Lagoon 380 catamarans out of Harborlight Yacht Club in Long Beach to sail to Catalina Island this summer, "Changing Channels" will return to Long Beach as of Monday, June 22, 2009.

A number of HYC members have taken advantage of the single day Cruising Catamaran Instruction and have already become qualified to sail the Lagoon 380's before the high season begins.

The 8-hour Cruising Catamaran Instruction is offered privately for a maximum of 2 students at a time. The Members Only section of the HYC website has been a useful networking tool for members looking to split charter and instruction costs for the Lagoon 380.
