\n<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Spring Rally departs the British Virgin Islands on May 16 to head to various ports on the East Coast of the U.S. or to Bermuda. Salty Dawg Rallies place an emphasis on fun, safety and building lasting friendships. They are a great way to meet other cruisers, and to sail offshore in company. You can register for the Rally and participate in all events. However, joining the Rally as a Member entitles you to many other benefits. Most participants also join as Members to take advantage of these added benefits.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Rally includes extensive planning and information prior to departure. Daily briefings by weather router and forecaster Chris Parker are provided to all who register, both before departure and offshore. And the many seasoned sailors who participate in the Rally offer a great resource to other Salty Dawgs. Daily nets track location of vessels, and offer help on any issues or questions that participants have. Once you register, are qualified to join the Rally and have completed your paperwork (Float Plan and Waivers), you will be given a password to get into the Dawg House where details on these nets and the schedule of Chris Parker briefings will be posted.<\/span><\/p>\n
