Strictly Steering Seminar

By LaDonna | November 13, 2009 | Oakland YC, Alameda |

The start of next summer’s Singlehanded TransPac — June 19 — is rushing ever closer, a point emphasized by the fact that the event’s third monthly seminar is on Monday night. "This presentation is simply titled ‘Steering Seminar’ since we’ll be addressing multiple issues: emergency steering options, windvanes and autopilots," says Race Co-Chair Bob Johnston. The doors to the Oakland YC open at 7 p.m., with the (free!) seminar starting at 7:30 sharp — and you don’t even have to be entered in the race to benefit from the experiences of some bad-ass sailors. Email Bob for more info.
