Attention Lido 14 enthusiasts

There will be a Lido Seminar on Sunday, July 13, 2025 at the Lake Washington Sailing Club!
Open to all!

RSVP at the link on this page.

Cost: $0.00

Meet at 11:00 am, to learn or re-learn how to rig, sail, and maintain your, or the club‘s Lido 14
sailboat. There will be an informative rigging demonstration to show you the "ropes" (lines)!
Beginners will have an opportunity to ask questions, learn to crew, and perhaps skipper their
own or the club‘s Lido 14. We hope to give information about tuning, launching (by hoist), and
sailing the boat on the water.

Make sure to bring a PFD, snack, and as always, a change of clothes. If you own a Lido 14, and
want to ask questions about your particular boat, bring it, receive helpful advice, and take it out
for a sail if you want.

In addition to the seminar, club members are invited to the club‘s barbeque.
Members please sign up separately for the barbeque. There will also be live music in the
afternoon, so come on down!

See you there!

(Lido Fleet 8 Co-Captains)
