Oh! and there is no charge for entry for the above groups. How about that? Yeah, it's because we love you. Y'all come out now, okay?

June 28 and 29 at Richmond Yacht Club... The Sarcoma Cup

Help defeat this disease and have a great time on the water. Heck, defeat your competitors too! RYC is a great place to race, and Really Close to us. Just a hop and a skip across the water. Check it out. And a party too. If you like parties, which I do.

Trader Vic's Likes Yacht Clubs.

I think they secretly wish they WERE a yacht club. Anyway, here is what we learned. At the one in Emeryville, the original, where the food is good, they have a special menu for Yacht Club members. Good in the bar (the menu, not the members) Nice little discount. Of course, you'll end up drinking the savings, but what's a pink cloud or three among friends?

US Sailing Does the Right Thing

They were talking about making membership mandatory if you sail in a race. Thanks to efforts of our representatives at YRA and others, US Sailing realized that that might not be as productive a move as they thought. Thanks Pat B and the YRA team!

Okay, It's Time to go to the club. Or something.

Talk to you soon...
