My compliments to SSS for fighting inflation! A reduction in race entry fee. More then ever the SSS races provide the most bang for the buck. SDK

The Dreaded Captola Shorebreak in days of yore. 1909. I particularly like the tramcar.
Ronnie Simpson is showing excellent decision making by pit stop in Hobart. Best to stop and make proper repairs with half the race course including Cape Horn still in play.
I am happy that Skip's...
The designer is Tom Wylie. SDK
The rock sculpture is pointing at Polaris. SDK
What is the black box off the Pt Molate Pier? This black box appears in the Round the Rocks Sailing Instructions, revision 2.
Hello John Kearney and all, I would like very much to see the next Corinthian Race start and finish at CYC. One of the most attractive things about the SSS races is the various venues for start and...
A radio-only start is superior to the usual flag start. Especially at the GGYC, with the starting area restrictions, and at the CYC with the huge distance from the race deck to the start line. At...
I would like to keep the format as it is. Singlehanded there, double handed back.
Where is the big pyramid shaped perpetual trophy for this event? SDK
"The older the fiddle, the sweeter the music" Well done Skip and Crew. SDK
Meanwhile, off Point Reyes.

why does a Manta Twin skipper sit in the leeward seat on a run? Or do they? One would think weight to windward to hold the boat down would be an advantage.
This Manta Twin pilot sits to windward...
Temp at Studio 1027 0600, Weds 2/23 is 0 degrees F. About a foot of snow storm to date here of cold real powder. Tabby Cat says it's too cold to sail, she went down below in the cabin to make hot...
Katz and cat navigation guess is 39hrs and 55minutes
The Tabby rolled over, woke from her nap and licked her paws. I told her the NDBC forecast and she told me to tell Syn, "Meow, no earlier then 1300 Tuesday for departure from RYC".
The Tabby and I, after long contemplation and intricate calculation, estimate arrival time Santa Barbara Weds, 2/23, 11:33am. SDK
Hello Sled Dog, Remembering our 3Bridge Fiascoe several years ago.
The Fiascoe is special to me: more a gathering of the tribe, to bring in the lengthening days, then a race. Of course, it's...
This racer questions the cost of renewing my phrf certificate. My rating stays the same, my boat is a well rated constant. No review is ever needed. It is probably only a few keystrokes to renew...
You paid 10 shekls for many shackles. You got a bargain.

All these stoked Express 27 Skippers made it into the harbor. It was a real nice clambake, we all had a swell time.
The Tabby and I are safe at a friends home in South Reno. It was a grueling hellish day of crawling traffic as the population of South Lake Tahoe evacuated for Nevada. SDK
A report from Meyers, South Lake Tahoe: There is a clearing trend this morning with SW winds less then 10mph, and cooler temps, 6am 38 degrees. I anticipate that the smoke will again increase as...
"Instruments? We didn't have no stinkin' instruments. White, .5 oz, hot-knifed, custom telltales were a better indicator for downwind steering..."
I applaud the above from Skip. The look of new...
Synthia without Eyrie, or Eyrie without Synthia? Times change, and we move on to other boats, on to other joys, but this is difficult for me.
I'll treasure the memory of watching her at the start...
