In the winter of 2009, a group of sailors got together to talk about the coming spring, lie about their past exploits, and generally talk sailing.
SEAS mission is to promote the appreciation of sailing and foster a community and culture committed to advancing both sailing and sailing education in the Juneau area. They were so taken by how much fun they were having, that they wondered why there wasn't a group that did this every week. After awhile, a general lament rose for all of the derelict sail boats in the harbors. The feeling was that

That's a wrap on Spirit of Admiralty 2025! Very proud of every sailor who went out there: some pretty extreme storms blew through and while one boat had to retire early there were no significant injuries and no irreparable boat damage. Great work all around, and fierce competition on both legs! Congratulations to Haiku for claiming overall victory, followed by Surprise and High Noon, who were separated by only 20 minutes on corrected time over more than 72 hours of elapsed racing.
And we're off! The Spirit of Admiralty has started, see you in Baranof warm springs in a few days!!!

Another week of rain, and another batch of intrepid sailors who still got out and got after it! Haiku took the top of the podium this week, leaving us with a different winner from each race so far this season. Whales and rainbows reminded us that we live in a beautiful spot, even when the weather still thinks it's October.
