Last Monday December 12th, Bainbridge Island Yacht Club had a Christmas Lighted Boat Parade coinciding with Argosy Cruise's annual "Christmas Ship" visiting Bainbridge Island. We were in attendance and had a great time! It was a beautiful night and I'd recommend it to anyone looking for something fun to do before the holidays next year.
Don’t miss out on a this Bainbridge Island Tradition.  Beginning December 12th and continuing through December 24ththe Bainbridge Island Fire Department- Holiday Music Truck will be making the rounds of the Island.
Each night the truck will operate from 5pm until 9pm. Since the 1950′s, the fire Department has decorated one of their trucks and made the rounds of all the island’s neighborhoods blasting holiday music.
To find out when they will be in your neighborhood, see the schedule below.

Over the past few months I have been helping to put together Bainbridge Island’s first ever wooden boat festival. We have a great group of Bainbridge Island boats that will be open to the public and even better, the weather forecast on Saturday is for sun!
When: June 4th 10-5pm & June 5th 10-2pm
Where: Harbor Pub Marina on the dock just below The Pub. The Pub will also be hosting a cash bar on the pier after 6pm, if you'd like to join us for a drink in the evening.Â
What: The Bainbridge Island Wooden Boat Festival “BIWBF “ is a weekend celebration of the island’s distinguished history of wooden boat building, design and preservation. The BIWBF will host a 30 – 40 boat fleet of sail, power, workboats and tenders. Tour the boats, hear the sea stories, the music and a lively session of maritime lore. It is an opportunity to meet the owner’s builders, designers and assorted characters from our island’s treasured wooden boat community. Saturday afternoon discussion group will be held, as well as live music, and food.
Cost: Free Admission!
I hope you can come. I’ll be hosting on the boat Araminta, so stop by and say hello!
