December Latitudes on the Street Today
Just in time for the weekend, the December issue of Latitude 38 magazine is being distributed today all over the Bay Area, and will also be available on the website to read online or download — for free, as always — by mid-afternoon today. (Distribution points in Southern California, the Pacific Northwest and Hawaii will receive their copies within a few days.)
Inside, you’ll find our usual mix of reporting on all levels of sailing fun, from top-end competitions like the Vendée Globe and America’s Cup World Series, to local kids and old-timers who enjoy the sport of sailing with equal passion. The Racing Sheet offers stats and recaps of major November and late-October Bay races; World of Chartering introduces you to the concept of international adventure chartering; and Changes in Latitudes offers its typical mix of cruising reports from all over the globe.
The month’s features include a recap of the 23rd Baja Ha-Ha rally, which provided some of most exciting sailing conditions ever; a world cruiser’s thoughts on how international sailors can take steps to reduce ocean pollution; and our celebratory salute to Bay Area Season Champs from the YRA, SSS and BAMA organizations.
We hope you enjoy our efforts from cover to cover. Happy reading!
