By Monica Grant | February 11, 2026 |

Welcome to this month’s Sailagram, a pictorial view of sailors doing what sailors love the most — sailing!

Magazine Features: March 2026

Three Bridge Fiasco

44
On the last day of January, 277 of the 303 boats that had signed up made their way out into the Bay to race in the 2026 edition of the Singlehanded Sailing Society's (SSS) Three Bridge Fiasco.

And So, I Decided to Do the Ha-Ha

48
Grace, a Traveler 32, Philip Rhodes double-ender, cutter-rigged, was my boat of choice, largely because she was floating and legally mine. I made all the proper arrangements: changes, fixes, additions, deletions, upgrades, downgrades, and several decisions I immediately questioned.

Menard's Olympic Campaign

52
One of those athletes is 22-year-old Bay Area sailor Hoel Menard, who recently announced he will be joining Sarah Newberry Moore's campaign in the Nacra 17 class.

Folkboats Forever

56
Gaze out over the boats in any marina and inevitably your thoughts turn to the stories behind every boat you see.

Max Ebb — Happy Endings

58
Every boat needs a playlist. Good music sets a positive mood, and a long set of favorites can help those long hours of the night watch go by quickly (even though any given watch between midnight and sunrise should never be longer than two hours).

Racing Sheet

62
The racing season for most fleets and yacht clubs kicks off in earnest this month, and some racing already kicked into high gear in February. Covered in this month's edition of the Racing Sheet, Scott Easom gives his take on the Three Bridge Fiasco.
