More information click here
Commander Club members, have you been:
Yearning for a little fix for Commander-itis?
Wanting to meet other Commander owners?
Wanting to try a great idea for a Commander gathering?
If you answered yes to any of those questions, then we have just the remedy for you: We encourage you to think about hosting, or, indicating your interest in hosting a National Rendezvous in your area in 2023.
National Rendezvous Guidelines
The “Application of Interest” is designed to assist you in determining whether your area of interest is a destination that is easy to get to by plane/car, has ample accommodations (hotels/motels), adequate eateries and, of course, Commanders for attendees to enjoy. Some rendezvous have had as few as 10 boats and as many as 60. It also helps us with our decision making.
The local host committee makes recommendations on marina, hotels, meals, local attractions. You are our representatives on site and do the leg work. The Executive Committee works right along with you via e-mail and conference calls. We do all the registration and payment details.
