Forget Shopping, Go Sailing

Don’t squander prime sailing time this weekend. Get your boat out of the slip!

If you’re still wringing out your foulies from last week’s drenching, you’ll be glad to know that this weekend’s forecast is for sunny, if not terrifically warm, weather. Light winds and temps in the low to mid 60s are perfect for snuggling under a blanket while enjoying a picnic lunch anchored behind Angel Island. Head over to Richardson Bay tomorrow in time to grab a slip or a spot in the anchorage before the Sausalito YC lighted boat parade starts around 6 p.m. (Vallejo YC and Petaluma YC’s parades are also tomorrow night — see our schedule of the remaining Lighted Boat Parades.) Organize an impromptu cruise-out to China Camp or Clipper Cove. Or use the mellow conditions to practice light-wind techniques with your crew. 

Big or small, wood or glass, all of our boats need a good airing out after last week’s triple dousings.

Regardless of how you do it, make it a priority to get out there and use your boat this weekend. We guarantee you won’t regret it.
