Spinning the Yarn

Spinning the Yarn, the History of the Hillsboro Inlet Sailing Club, as the name explains is the history of our club.  But it is more than that.  I began the book with a quote:

 

History is the witness that testifies to the passing of time;
it illumines reality, vitalizes memory, provides guidance in
daily life and brings us tidings of antiquities.

Marcus Tullius Cicero, circa 50 BCE

This book is about those “tidings of antiquities.”  When I joined in 2009, I began to hear the stories from the founders, who were quite old and many of them had passed, about our past.  I asked old-timers if these stories had been written down and was told that they were not.  Being new to the HISC, I asked if someone would put this tale on paper.  Alas, no one would or could do it.  In 2018 I began to collect, edit, and record our story.  This book was printed in time to celebrate our 50th anniversary in 2021.
