Hi everyone,
Reposting with the left over goodies. Good price and awesome equipment for anyone looking to be cool!
Revere Offshore Commander 2.0 Liferaft 4-Person / Valise
New in March 2016...
Hi everyone,
Everything from Kato was shipped back to me in a crate, I got a ton of stuff and it would make a great ready-to-go kit for anyone thinking about the 2018 race.
It includes a ton...
I can hardly sleep I am so excited!! I just hope I pick the right sail for the start and don't have to change it until I can put up a spinnaker :)
That sounds awesome! I really wanted to do this one, but had to do last minute things on Kato for the big start this Saturday.

That was lumpy! I learned that unless I am 100% focused the AP is better at steering through the waves then I am. I noticed Nightmare made up a good deal of time during my struggles to hand steer -...
I love the idea, Bob. I was just scanning the forums to see what non SSS races you guys/gals will be doing next. Farallon Islands this weekend?
Thanks Harrier! Its a great thought - I have considered it heavily. The fact is, I can afford about one long trip a year in terms of time off work. If I do another year without doing a trip/vacation...
Thanks Ronnie - appreciate the note.
I have spoken with members of the fleet who do want to buy my boat. But they are not willing to pay more than 10k.
I hope I can find someone who wants to...
This is great! thanks for sharing.
I am looking into it - i don't have a trailer and will have very little time in HI to get it ready for shipping.
Please ping me if you or anyone you know would be interested.

When I moved here two years ago I took a very cautious approach to exploring the area (mainly Angle Island/The Rock through GGB to the Farallon Islands). I did my best to read up on the hazardous...
I get my new mast/boom next week at best and new main the week after- I am fighting hard to be able to do this with rigging for just the #3 (and 4) and a spinnaker (probably enough). I need to work...
for small boats in sausalito - check out Sausalito shipyard and Marina. ~$250 a month. I have had my boat there for a year and really like the liveaboards and the general vibe.
Make an offer! there is nothing wrong with them, i am moving to floating leads.
They are located in sausalito (I am at the boat every weekend) - the jib ones are smaller and much newer.
...
I am giving them a try everywhere, light boats make this more feasible - except for applications where line movement is constant and under load (as Bob mentioned). I am completely redoing my deck, ...
Breaking load is 4000 lb - surely, most sailors need only half of that to 'suspend' themselves.
Good luck! I am replacing everything with these:

Thank you!
~$500 in flares - anyone know of a good place to get these?
Thank you, Bob.
Having just read this very closely and comparing it to past LongPac requirements I too share many of the same concerns as Bob. Many of these require me to change or repurchase...
Just reserved my raft! thank you!
Question: I see on the main site that the SH Farallones is a qualifier for the LongPac. I may not be able to make that race due to other commitments - is there another way to qualify?
