Well, it's a friendly regatta... Sausalito, around Alcatraz, up
Raccoon Straight, then ending at the Richardson Bay entrance.

I'm sailing an Ericson 32, "competing" with several Beneteaus of
various sizes, a Pearson and a C&C 32, several Hanses (35 and 47), a
Caliber 40, and a Morgan Out Island 51.

We've got the ebb for most of the time, so it should be interesting
getting to Alcatraz and behind Angel Island.


With his handicap, if the Morgan arrives two days after everyone goes
home HE WINS! (My buddy's Amel 41 is in that class, too....(c;])


Yeahbut - he has to finish within two days after to do that.

Even money!



I'm betting that the boats of similar size will start together. The plan is
supposedly every 10 minutes. We shall see. It's pretty low-key.
