Grand Events from the new Helmsman Trawlers Owner Club!
Hello Helmsman fans:
The Helmsman Trawlers Owners Club became a formal non-profit club on 11/21/24.
We just launched our brand-new official website: Home - Helmsman Trawlers Owners Club
As the club now has grown to 45+ Helmsman vessels, we are happy to announce not one, but two Rendezvous this year.
If you own a Helmsman Trawler, or are in contract to construct a vessel, and would like to join the festivals and club, please join the club and sign up here: New Member Sign Up - Helmsman Trawlers Owners Club
Last year we got together as a gang of happy boaters and had great fun in Roche Harbor.
The Spring event is our bon voyage perfectly timed to allow Alaska-bound explorers to embark on their northern adventures afterward from Port Browning.
Then the Fall rendezvous is a gathering to share the inside passages as we return to Roche Harbor again this year.
Join us for potlucks, happy hours, trawler discussions, and engaging in social activities as we create lasting memories together.
BOTH locations have a means to join us via car, or plane if you’re a bit far away. If you need assistance on figuring out logistics, feel free to contact the event lead.
If you have any questions joining the club, registering, or have questions about the events, please contact me at membership@helmsmantrawlersclub.com
Thanks, Tom

2025 FALL Pacific Northwest Rendezvous - Roche Harbor Resort
Dates: Wednesday, September 24 through Sunday, September 28, 2025
Experience the Magic of Roche Harbor!
Nestled on the northwest side of San Juan Island in Washington State, Roche Harbor is the perfect blend of history, charm, and leisure. Known for its well-protected harbor, surrounded by San Juan Island, Pearl Island, and Henry Island, this destination offers both natural beauty and a rich heritage.
Once a bustling company town with roots in the lime industry and home to a thriving Coast Salish community, Roche Harbor has transformed into a vibrant resort filled with historic treasures like the Hotel de Haro and stunning gardens. Visitors can enjoy breathtaking views of Haro Strait, indulge in modern amenities like guest docks and restaurants, and immerse themselves in a mix of history and recreation.

Returning to Roche Harbor, we’re excited to bring back beloved traditions like the popular crabfest, while spicing things up with new experiences!
Highlights include a photo contest, a member awards program, and much more. Plus, you won’t want to miss the opportunity to see the PH46 on tour — it’ll be here on display (we promise!). 

Join us for a memorable adventure where camaraderie meets the charm of Roche Harbor—see you there!
