A Soggy Start to Spring

March made like a lion last night, sending a roaring front through the Bay Area that had the halyards slapping. Hopefully you made it to your local marina, yacht club or chandlery in time to pick up the March issue of Latitude 38 — which hit the usual Bay Area spots earlier in the day — to keep your mind off the weather. If not, run between the raindrops to grab up your copy today. In it, you’ll find a full report on one of the most popular races on the Bay, the Three Bridge Fiasco; the first set of profiles of cruisers getting ready for this year’s Pacific Puddle Jump; the Dummy’s Guide to Getting Into Racing; the story of an old woodie’s restoration; and of course more than you can read in one sitting. Just don’t forget your sou’wester!
