EIGHT BELLS: Bill Mauk passed away January 22nd.
Unfortunately, due to Covid, we are not planning a memorial
service at this time. Once restrictions are lifted, we will
update CaringBridge with the details. We look forward to the
day we can get together in-person to share stores of my father.
He lived an amazing, adventure filled life and I know there will be
many marvelous stories to tell. Thank you all for your support
and friendship,
On behalf of the Board of Directors of
the Biscayne Bay Yacht Racing Association, we invite you to join our
‘New Social Distancing’
sailing season starting September 1, 2020, through August 31, 2021.
