Oil Spill Update
We received a range of responses from Monday’s query about the impact on the Bay from last week’s 800-gallon Dubai Star bunker oil spill, which fouled beaches and wildlife in the East Bay: A containment boom on the Estuary following the oil spill from the Panamanian-flagged tanker Dubai Star a week ago.© Carolyn Samit "You…

Stone Wins J/105 NAs

Point Conception Carnage
Point Conception is notorious among coastal sailors. A combination of unusually strong winds and large seas can make rounding the point very difficult. In fact, it’s not at all uncommon for boats to wait days — even weeks — for a good weather window. But some boats don’t wait. "Point Conception has been the sad…
BMW Oracle Racing Drops Rig
What’s wrong with this picture? BMW Oracle Racing is missing her rig, unexpectedly. © Peter Rusch Just a few days after resuming testing aboard BMW Oracle 90, BMW Oracle Racing suffered a setback yesterday in the wake of some impressive wins in the courtroom.

Ha-Ha Gets Sweeter by the Leg
Most of the Sweet Sixteen Baja Ha-Ha Fleet is now comfortably anchored in Bahia Santa Maria, after completing an extremely mellow second leg — a distinct contrast to the ultra-rowdy conditions of Leg 1. On Sunday, the morning after a fun-filled Turtle Bay beach party, the fleet crossed the Leg 2 starting line at 11…
‘Dubai Star’ Spilled up to 800 Gallons
Early hopes that Friday morning’s bunker fuel-spill in Anchorage Nine would have little impact on the Bay have turned out to be unfounded. The Coast Guard is estimating that 400 to 800 gallons of the cruddy junk spilled from the Panamanian-flagged tanker Dubai Star during fueling operations. Despite the deployment of over 50,000 feet of…
Different Takes on D-Day

Richmond. © Erica Kaplan Last week, we thought we’d throw out an example of a "Delivery Day" party in anticipation of the impending delivery of the November issue of Latitude 38. “Delivery Day” at Tiburon YC; over 50…
Tanker Spills Fuel
A ruptured fuel line may be to blame for what the Coast Guard is calling an "unknown amount of fuel" released into the Bay from the Panamanian-flagged tanker Dubai Star. Just before 7 a.m., the Coast Guard received a report from the ship that while engaged in bunkering operations in Anchorage Nine — near the…
