Lighted Boat Photo Contest
Stationary boats are much easier to photograph but you still need a motionless platform or you’ll end up with fuzzy pics.latitude/LaDonna© Latitude 38 Media, LLC As we mentioned in Friday’s ‘Lectronic posting of all the Bay Area lighted boat parades, shooting such events is notoriously tricky. Photographing moving objects at night is difficult enough, but…
The Sailing Solution for Shoppers
There are few things in life that we enjoy more than sailing. And by contrast, there are few things we dislike more than battling crowds of over-amped shoppers during the holiday season, while struggling to find meaningful gifts for the people we love. Are sailing lessons on San Francsico Bay fun and exhilarating? Oh yeah!…

The National Weather Service has issued high wind advisories along the central coast for this afternoon, with gusts predicted to hit upward of 40 knots or higher. The high pressure system that…
Do You Have a Water-Exit Plan?
We’re sad to report that a liveaboard boater in the Oakland-Alameda Estuary drowned Friday night, apparently having fallen into the 55-degree water and becoming tangled in docklines or other rigging. Drinking is thought to have played a role in the tragic death. Unfortunately, such sad events are common in Bay waters, especially during the winter…
