Make Your Plan for Strictly Sail

Strictly Sail Pacific, the biggest all-sail boat show on the West Coast, will open in less than four weeks: Dates are Thursday, April 7 – Sunday, April 10. So it’s high time you marked your calendar and started making your game plan for visiting its many vendors and attending its free seminars.

Prospective boat buyers check out a brand new yacht at Strictly Sail Pacific.

To aid you in that process, check out the slick electronic Strictly Sail Show Guide at this link. There you’ll find an overview of eye-catching new products, featured seminars, free sailing opportunities, and profiles on many boats that will be on display and open for dockside tours.

It’s important to note that this long-established show has moved from Oakland to a new location on the Richmond waterfront, with exhibits in the historic Craneway Pavilion, and in-the-water boat viewing at the adjacent Marina Bay Yacht Harbor. (One big plus regarding the move is that parking should be much easier this year.)

Richmond’s Marina Bay and the historic Craneway Pavilion are the new homes of Strictly Sail Pacific.
