Rod Stephens Trophy for Outstanding Seamanship
The Rod Stephens Seamanship Trophy was presented to the Cruising
Club of America by 21 of Rod's shipmates and other friends. It
is a perpetual trophy to be awarded by the Club for an act of
seamanship which significantly contributes to the safety of a
yacht, or one or more individuals at sea.
The Cruising Club of America’s (CCA) 2011 Rod Stephens Trophy for Outstanding Seamanship is well deserved by Bob Arzbaecher (Milwaukee, Wisc.) and the crew of the Beneteau 40.7 Sociable for their dramatic rescue of the crew of the Kiwi 35 WingNuts during the Chicago Yacht Club’s 103rd Race to Mackinac held this past July. read more
