The Sea Is Calling

There are a lot of good reasons to head out sailing on the Bay or to sail out the Golden Gate to Mexico. But for many the question is how. If you don’t know where to begin, a good place to start is the Latitude 38 Crew List and Party. It’s not magic, but sometimes magical things happen when you bring together a group of people with sailboats and people who want to go sailing. This past Wednesday’s Crew List Party at Spaulding Marine Center in Sausalito again confirms the value of making the connection.

In attendance were cruisers from the Pacific Northwest heading south to join the Baja Ha-Ha, local cruisers doing the same, and many Bay Area sailors and boat owners looking to connect up with crew for local sailing opportunities. There’s no shortage of people who want to step off the land and get on the water.

If you find the sea calling and are looking to escape the mayhem ashore, the answer may be as close as San Francisco Bay, or it may take you miles beyond. Our twice-a-year crew parties are a reminder that, after deciding to go sailing, the next step is making the right connections.
