This was our last 62 miles of river before we enter Mobile Bay

Here we are at 3 Rivers Lake Anchorage just off the river with two other Loopers.

This boat in front of us is facing the opening to the main river...

Jet Stream was across from us.... (retired Airline Pilot)

Fairhope Yacht Club

Our view from the boat... $10 a day to stay here...sweet!

This could be Tony Buck from SSYC's sister!

Hey Tony, I found your long lost sister...

This is Sue, the bar manager of Fairhope Yacht Club. Sue let us use her car while we were here.

Lakeside view of FYC

Circular drop off of FYC

Various entrances off the front...

This side overlooks Mobile Bay and is full of members during cocktail hour just rockin and talkin. 

Oh, FYC had Taco Tuesday which is free to all members and guests...

FYI Yacht Club Members...

Fairhope Yacht Club Associate Membership (first year)

$500 Entrance Fee,  Dues $670 per year, $56 per month minimum in bar or restaurant.

not bad!!!

Fairhope Yacht Club Equity Membership (second year of membership)

Equity members must purchase a $5,300 Debenture Bond which may be paid in full within thirty days of acceptance or may be paid in installments over a 24 or 48 month period with a 8.5% interest rate...

what the heck....

Before Hurricane Katrina the bond was $300 dollars.... Water, not Wind from Katrina destroy the Fairhope Yacht Club completely and insurance didn't cover it all....thus the change...
