16 Jan '22

It is that time of year again for the Harbormaster's Clam Chowder Social. Saturday, January 29th starting at 11am and wrapping up at 2pm. Bring your favorite clam chowder recipe or side dish. This is a social for the whole marina community. We will try to hold the social at the Harbormaster's residence (Dave's fifth wheel) but will move it over to the yacht club if the weather turns adverse. Hope to see you all there. Dave

SAD NEWS

02 Jan '22

It has just come to my attention of the passing of one of our Great Salt Lake and Utah sailing community members. Dave Dingman passed away earlier this month. Dave led an incredible life. I remember racing against him many times on his boat DINGER, a Santa Cruz 27. Dave was an avid sailor, pilot, canoer and kayaker. He was also an avid mountain climber. In 1959 he led a team to be the first in history to scale both of Mt. McKinley's twin peaks in the same day. He was also on the first American team to summit Mt Everest. He is credited with rescuing four climbers during the descent. His full obituary can be seen by clicking on the following link: https://www.legacy.com/us/obituaries/saltlaketribune/name/david-dingman-obi… [cid:image001.jpg@01D7FD8A.9F18B630]
