The Weekend Report: Corinthian’s Last Beer Can

There is no denying that the seasons, they are a-changin’. The kids are back in school, there were Halloween costumes for sale at Costco, and Corinthian Yacht Club’s beer can series came to a conclusion under dramatic skies.

Not to worry, racers. There are still plenty of beer cans going throughout the Bay. And once those end, there will be a bajillion regattas throughout the fall, winter and spring to tied you over.

But with that said, we still got a little misty to see the Corinthian season go.
