Default Great sail on Saturday

Started out in a bit of haze, then it burned off. Proceeding toward Angel
Island, we encountered the nearly 300-boat annual Vallego Race. They were
running downwind from San Francisco toward the Richmond/San Rafeal Bridge
when we got there. Fortunately, we didn't interefer at all, having perfect
timing... we were at Raccoon Straight when they passed, so had a wonderful
view from the stern of Excalibur. No pics, as the camera was down for the
count.


That's a shame, I bet it was a grand sight.
SF Bay is always an interesting place to sail with a lot happening.

BTW if you need a new camera, check with Martin B


.... When
I asked him if it could possibly get better than this, he hollered over, "no
f*cking way!" And, we both smiled and kept going.


Some people apparently find other things to do with their lives, but I
don't see why.
