Still looking for one...
Howdy;
For those who'd like to do a race with more than 2 people, BYC is hosting a race this coming Saturday Oct 3 on the Berkeley Circle. Fleets are available for both short-handed and crewed...
Fake news, never happened. Btw someone plz get the garbage truck to brickyard, the dumpster got full early this week.
Based on sss’ rtr race, with 108 signed up and counting, dh is the way to go. I’m gonna see how the elite sail on the 29th (crewing on an alerion 28, which I think means I’m the snacktician), and dh...
So...you’re working on your transmission? The cars, or the boats?

Competes with jazz cup. And tends to be a light wind affair.
Yep as Jim said clip in. Specially if you’re not moving around. No reason not to. I’m always more confident when I see all the folks on their leashes.

We ditched the ditch at 1530 when we got to the carquinez bridge. We had a bitchin start and the first hour or so was good, extended our lead, but then we convinced ourselves the flood would build...
+1 on jeff z’s post.
On a different subject: what was the deal with the sunfast? Just after rounding dux, we saw them going in circles, and looked like they had a boathook out. Did not look like...

amen. brought the big cqr and extra chain, slept like a baby--ie, woke up to pee a couple times, but didn't see any dragging, even with 2 other boats tied up. love my cqr.
i would also say that in...
sunday's race is in the estuary...interesting.
Another fun West Point. After a middling start, we fetched the first mark, headed up to angel for current relief, tacked around blunt and watched the rest of our fleet head straight to Alcatraz. We...
A light wind start that boosted to 20+ around Bonita. Our jib peel went ok, except for a humper surfacing a couple boat-lengths in front necessitated a faster tack than usual. Much ship activity...
Can't miss it, a fave.
"...drunk middle aged white people sweating..."
They see me rollin--they hatin.
god bless the coast guard. i hope they never have to pay for their own drinks...
it was a shame the shy didn't hold--it was sweet for the ~3 minutes it was up. But it was made in 1972, most of my crew were made after that. So I guess it's days were done. New shy kite on order!
To Bob J's point...the area in the dashed box below is the restricted area. I believe the RRS require us to follow all local laws and regs, and that includes avoiding restricted areas, even if they...
Cool story bro. Hoping some of this guys will show for the awards and divulge their decisioning process to take that route--seemed so contrary to all the info we were getting. I wanna know their...
