76TH ANNUAL FLEET REVIEW

BY SALLY RUDNICK, 2022 FLEET REVIEW COMMITTEE CHAIR

As your Fleet Review Chair, I invite all CYC members,and their guests, to participate in our 76th Annual Fleet Review. Fleet Review is one of many grand traditions of the Chicago Yacht Club and a fitting salute to our Commodore, Nick Berberian.

WHAT IS A FLEET REVIEW?

A fleet review is an event where a gathering of ships from a particular navy is paraded and reviewed by a reigning head of state and/or other official civilian and military dignitaries. If you have a sailboat or powerboat, please join us for this historical event. We would love to have 30 or more boats participate in 2022! Please register your boat early. Champagne flutes will be given to all participants! If you plan to have your boat in our 2022 CYC Fleet Review parade, please dress your boat as follows: • United States Ensign • Chicago Yacht Club Burgee Only • Private signal • The International Code flags • Winners flags and pennants from prior years All boats will “Pass in Review” by the CYC dock and salute the Commodore and Flag Officers by dipping their ensign as they go past the club. Commodore Nick Berberian will give a champagne toast on the Monroe docks afterwards for all those who participated in Fleet Review.

We invite all members to visit us throughout the course of Fleet Review weekend. Don’t miss it! ✶
