2013 Pacific Northwest Rendezvous
Thanks to Peter Jacobs, Chairman of the Event Committee for the following and to Phill Lowe for the reminder.
The 2013 Pacific Northwest Rendezvous was held Tuesday 10th and Wednesday 11th September 2013 at Lopez Island Resort in Fisherman Bay, Lopez Island, San Juan Islands Group, Washington State, USA. (48°30.774'N, 122°54.894'W)
We were not able to make it this year so as soon as someone sends us a report and photos we will post them here.

The American Vega Association
is a loosely organized group of owners and enthusiasts of the Per
Brohall designed Albin Vega 27 sloop. Our purpose is to provide a
central resource for information and assistance in the enjoyment and
maintenance of these fine sailboats, to keep Vega owners and
enthusiasts worldwide informed of events and gatherings of interest, to assist in organizing and promoting Vega fleet
Rendezvous and to share information on maintaining, modifying, sailing
and living aboard the Vega. There are photo essays of notable Vegas,
accounts of voyages
and adventures plus announcements and complete
coverage of events like the Pacific Northwest VEGAtarian Rendezvous and
the International Friendship Regattas and links to sites of
interest. WE think the Vega 27 is one of the finest small
cruisers ever built but you don't have to take our word for it.
Take a look at this independent evaluation.

Membership in the American Vega Association is open to anyone. You need not own a Vega to join or to take part in club activities. To become a member all you need do is sign up. Completing the sign up form helps us keep track of boats as they change hands and move around the world. Benefits to membership include access to the MemberShip pages including the newsletter archive and the Vega Owners Repair and Maintenance Manual, compiled by the members for more than thirty years and continually updated with new material, available in printer-friendly .pdf format.
At this time, membership fees have been waived. Expenses are being covered by volunary contributions and income from sales in the Ship's Store.
All in all, the American Vega Association is a valuable resource
for any owner or aspiring owner of a Vega or any small fiberglass
cruising sailboat. We hope you’ll join us. If you have any questions
email us at:
