Mike and Tony, DH,
Late March/early April should work for me.
I’ll keep an eye out here.
I am also doing a SAS late April fyi.

Not long after Pearl Harbor the navy commandeered long range tuna boats to supply the troops in the Pacific, 49 in all. 600 fisherman, mostly from Southern California, signed up, put on uniforms and...
Outsider and The PCExpress were closer to the point which offered a bit more protection. I split off the raft around midnight and simply drifted back and dropped my plow (already sitting on deck)...
He's right outside now- unfortunately I didn't rig the boat in time but he'll have a nice welcome from ryc.
It was pretty cool when Isabelle (90's) and later Giovanni (2013) rolled in to Pier 39...
The Express 27 never stops impressing me. Saturday's 3 Bridge allowed the little Santa Cruz beast to do her thing again, this time in a light air, flat water marthon. Well, a marathon for me at...
The gong was pretty cool.
A little spooky for a solo dark finish but it worked.
Last Sunday was fun. Partially in the interest of staying out of the way but mostly due to being early, I buried The PCXpress under Al and Bob and managed a horrendous start but made ok headway to...
Nice to hear Siren is making Drakes Bay. I did a windy and pretty dark Pac Cup with Brendan in '12 and was damn happy he was on board. Great driver and a funny dude. He will be tough to beat in '23. ...
Synthia and Eyrie coasting past Pier 39 on their own fiasco.
Aloha is now signed up for both Ditch and SHT. The Ditch is pretty demanding itself with either a long delivery back or trailer time with hours of breakdown/set up, so this is most ambitious.
In...
The only sail I passed Saturday was my own spinnaker.
Twice.
My race started ugly and never fully recovered.
I failed to rig the lifeline netting causing the pre rigged kite to shrimp (in the...
It was nice sailing alongside on the beat back.
Yup- and derelict boats are the reason behind the new law.
"Begining March 1st 2020, all vessels 26' in length and greater operating on State waters will be required to have vessel insurance."
The times they are a changing.
Sorry to hear this Alan.
Glad you're coming out for Rocks though.
I sent you a pm for the Garmin.

The PCExpress underwent mast inspection/repairs in Jan. We found some serious ugly at the mast base and cut an inch and a half off the bottom. It's now supported by a nice block of phenolic. Thank...
I'm sure a boat going back on it's own bottom woukd happily take the extra weight and safety.
Agreed

Are they still holding to being vaccinated within 3 months of visiting? If so that cuts out most of my family who've already had shots.
As for me who knows.
The timing on this is pretty tight and...
"Svalen", hull 117.
Sound hull, deck and rig but needs lots of tlc. Aluminum rig in like new condition.
Hoping I don’t have to crush the ol' girl but time is ticking and if Hawaii is going to...
The approach to SHS on port board was nuts. This race may be cursed!
Just before the park up.
Bombora, Fugu and likely Hedgehog smartly stayed outside. The Pork Chop Express got caught up in the mess but squeezed through.
A real horror show!
Just my humble opinion but the out and back option seems alot more appealing than running down a foggy, ship littered coast singlehanded.
As for testing gear maybe go with 3 crew on CRW and see what...
I would be fine forgoing awards/water taxis etc. but quarantine could be a deal killer.
Moreover, without both shots I'm reluctant to fly back and the little Express is a tough return- plus the wife...
