We had a lifeline break on sea star last year. No visible corrosion on outside, but inside the swage, only 1 shiny wire. I think that wire was around 8 years. We changed all the wire.

I know someone who might want to help, but he has very little racing experience and zero RC experience. Should I still have him contact you?

As of 0730 pt he’s ~56 miles from center span doing ~6kts.
Any updates on buffalo’s expected eta? Sea Star would like to join the welcome flotilla.
Is this where all the racer’s reports will be posted?
Yeah I was surprised to see sh on the course last week. Glad nobody banged into it.

It’s off byc’ s mark list too.
That was the first time I’ve single handed in around 6 years i think, and back then the boat had a stack pack and roller furler. And i was younger...
It was a fun day and i was glad to finish....
...and we have 5 boats for the cal 39/40 fleet.
...and it’s full. Impressive. I have to admit I did not think there’d be 125 sh racers. It’ll be my first sh race since the roller furler and stack pack came off a few years ago. Wish me luck.
From the YRA perspective (Laura has been through this with the CG many times), they want singe households on boats. they don't care if its 1 or 10 if they all share the same domicile and can prove...
There’s a few of us sailor couples out here. We could do a couples division? Same household only?
Just heard three bridge will be SH only...true?
One thing missing from he how-to-enter page is a reference to the standing sailing instructions. The 2021 version isn’t up yet but o than race dates won’t change much from 2020,which is here. The...
Yeah i already apologized for YRA not making it clear 8ball would be in its own division; it was a new experience for us also. We’ll do better.
As for an overall trophy i would not think so. At...
Not sure I made this point clear, let me re-state: this boat will not be entered into divisions with other competitors in YRA races, until such time more boats that are similarly equipped also enter...
A bit late to the thread and trying to catch up. I think most of the pertinent points have been made. Cyc I guess is letting 8ball compete using the phrf adjustments, but in my opinion that doesn’t...
Did anyone get the zoom link?
Howdy;
BYC is hosting a race this coming Saturday Oct 3 on the Berkeley Circle. Fleets are available for both short-handed and crewed boats. It's up to each skipper to ensure they follow the City...

9/19: double handed farallones

10/24: great pumpkin
...and he still dove Andy’s boat.
Btw, both the yra and the j105 regattas have cancelled tomorrow due to poor air conditions.
So air quality looking really bad. Do we have a plan/time for cancelling the race?
I’m not 100% on going, depends on forecast. But if I go, my 1st thought is ketch Joanne. They’ve been serving outside. Other than that, I might just take a big pressure cooker of chowder and stay on...
Is the race on for the 12th?
