Dear Beneteau Owners and Friends:
South Coast Yachts, Naos Yachts, and Beneteau America cordially invite you to attend the 2020 Beneteau “L’eau Key” Rendezvous! This year’s event is scheduled for August 7th-8th at Isthmus Cove, Catalina Island. As you can probably imagine, it will be different this year and what an interesting year we’re having! Considering the restrictions imposed by the county for “No large group gatherings” and the suggested Social Distancing, we’ve decided to head to Catalina anyway!…. BUT we will not have any large gatherings or events on land at Two Harbors. We are all heading over on our boats to enjoy the weekend and we will organize some fun “socially distanced” functions on the water only, listed below. Here are some details:
**Moorings are first come /first serve, but if you are registered, they are expecting you. Please join dozens of other Beneteau owners and friends for this fun and festive weekend. As of 6/15/20, there is NO SHOREBOAT SERVICE! Please plan to bring a dinghy or email info@dinghydr.com to acquire one.
