Kiting and Cruising the California Delta
Among the many sailors rediscovering the Bay Area’s local cruising scene is Jos Cocquyt who, along with his wife Anne, headed up the Delta aboard their Santana 30 Electra for some summer cruising and kiting.
Jos wrote, “We were enjoying some Delta magic on Electra earlier in the year. I solo snuck up there in the height of COVID for my sanity, and then my wife and I did a week in June that was beautiful. We loved Benicia and spent several days by Sherman Island, where we normally go kite in summer and camp on land (no camping now). I added a couple of pics of our trip here.”





The Delta is always there for California cruisers. In this year’s pandemic, many sailors are rediscovering our close-to-home getaways.
Absolutely love Benicia and the history!
Sailing and kiting fit together so well!
The Delta is a great place for water fun!
Wow looks killer! Wish I was there.
Beautiful site! Would love to go there someday! Barb Cook (Scott’s Mom)
