Lindy Thomas Hall of Fame induction

In the December issue of their news magazine, the Lake Michigan Sail Racing Federation writes that Lindy Thomas will be inducted in the Lake Michigan Sailing Hall of Fame as part of the Chicago Yacht Club Honors Ceremony on Wednesday, December 14, 2016, 6:30 pm CST, at Monroe Station.  The ceremony honors Chicago Yacht Club members who have made significant achievements in sailing.  Cost is $25 per person, including appetizers and two drink tickets.  Call 312.861.7777 to register for the event.

It's meaningful to me because Lindy Thomas is the namesake behind Thomas Marine and the driving force in creating the Thomas 35.

  1. Karen and I are signed up to attend this event. I hope to have a chance to meet Lindy Thomas. Maybe even ask him a few questions about the design of the Thomas 35!
