But then Webb Chiles isn’t most people, and for him the idea doesn’t even seem unusual. After all, in his 71…
Open 5.70 North Americans
It’s probably safe to say that every sailor who sailed in last weekend’s Open 5.70 North American Championships has competed in dozens of regattas. But this one will most likely stand out in their memories for years to come: The 20-boat fleet was not only treated to two fly-bys of the retiring space shuttle on…

Latitude’s Mailbag
Seen here high and dry – well, almost – on Akutan Island, Cesura apparently suffered little damage when she was grounded. Note the American flag. © 2012 Rimas Meleshyus After 35 years of publishing the West Coast’s favorite sailing magazine, our network of news sources and acquaintances is far-reaching, to say the least.

The latest example of that commitment came last Saturday when Encinal YC hosted…
Peaceful Northwest Cruising – Usually
Our hearts go out to the owner of Persuasion. There are many more hard, pointy things just below the surface in the Pacific Northwest than there are on San Francisco Bay. © Dick Enersen "The cruising up here in British Columbia has been great," reported San Franciscan Dick Enersen last week aboard Brass Ring, which…
A Truly Bodacious Waterslide
