RIP RBG Respect.

Maybe Pier 39. Dredged 2018. Isabelle Autissier was here in 1994. Maserati with Giovanni and Ryan in 2013. I have a 45ft slip -my renter just...

As things are going it's likely that I'll just leave from HMB, go under the bridge, and turn around. Unless maybe someone has a contact at the GGYC...

Dirigible USS Macon, built in Sunnyvale. https://montereybay.noaa.gov/maritime/macon/welcome.html

Yes, Stillwater is a lovely spot. One must be prepared to navigate and anchor in kelp. Apparently a buddy boat to DURA MATER from SSS Forum wrapped...

Welcome back! RYC will try to hold the Great Pumpkin, but I'm not sure we can this year. Usually right around Halloween.

Is Stillwater Cove viable as a an anchoring option? I have fond memories from back in the 80's. Ants

On another SSS Forum thread DAZZLER mentions Schmieder Bank: ~3 nm West-Southwest of Point Sur is the relatively shallow Schmieder Bank, with the...

At 9:20 a.m., after 2 days local sojourn and under clear skies, Jackie on DURA MATER departed Santa Cruz Harbor for Monterey, San Simeon, Morro Bay,...

~3 nm West-Southwest of Point Sur is the relatively shallow Schmieder Bank, with the top at about 20 fathoms. ...

Even if there's no wind, like the time I came up from Morro Bay in 2006, the lumpy water around Point Sur extends a remarkably far distance out from...

A day in Santa Cruz is always a pleasure, and this one started out sitting on the breakwater drinking coffee waiting for the fog to lift. Howard and...

I finally got all the video assembled....here you go! (for those with nothing better to do....) https://youtu.be/tUpu2J1NLbE

I popped lenses out of both of my new pairs of glasses on day two, so since I'm going to take them to For Eyes tomorrow and raise a fuss over their...

Gosh Mike, you should consider entering Emerald in the Half Moon Bay race. Peter Jones has sailed Emerald on so many SSS races that Emerald is...

You just know everybody who's anybody!

Before we left HMB I “helped” Philippe test his Pelagic. Meaning: I stood aboard Changabang as we motored around the harbor w him studying and...

I"v been out of touch with this thread! The Navik is GREAT! It's a wonderful piece of kit! You're gonna love it, especially on this trip.

Great trip! The tracker works great, within cell range of the coast.

But I DID sail with it, at least for a while! I'll be trying it again, for longer, this winter.

Finally.....e-rudder deployment videos! The gunk on my knees is slime rubbed off the primary rudder. This test left big smudges of bottom paint all...

Question for those with experience in HMB: I had previously planned a sail to HMB on 9/26, planning to tie up, moor, or anchor. With the race now...

Glad i checked the forum! Jibeset still has no notice of the re-schedule (or even the cancelation), and I haven't gotten an email about the...

as of 0700 DURA MATER is Southbound, at sea; Jackie should be abeam Pescadero by 1100. https://www.jibeset.net/daysail.php

9/26 has the slack before ebb at start time. 10/3 has the slack before FLOOD at 0900. After last year's debacle getting out the Gate, I agree with...

I'd recommend starting and sticking with an AIS equipped VHF (pick your make/model). The rest of my system is about wanting to be seen (the...

Blue skies!! Thanks for the welcoming committe for arranging that. (in the fire impacted Sierra Mountains, I have only seen blue skies once in...
