Stockton Sail Camp a Success
Eighty kids enjoyed learning on Stockton’s warm, fresh waters.© 2009 Peter Allen A week after hosting 35 boats worth of young-at-heart sailors in the Delta Doo Dah, Stockton Sailing Club members recuperated enough to play host to another group of 80 sailors who acted like kids — for good reason: they were kids! Parents and…
Over the Top
We received a number of complaints about the photo in Wednesday‘s ‘Lectronic that showed a man whose torso had been impaled on a log. The impaling was apparently a result of the man losing control of his bass boat while travelling at excessive speed. The intent of the photo was to dramatically illustrate — in…
Escalera Nautica Now Ladder to Nowhere
To some, the stairway seemed perfectly logical. To others, ridiculous. © FONATUR File this one under ‘seemed like a good idea at the time’: We’ve received word via news reports from south of the border that the Mexican government has finally pulled the plug on its Escalera Nautica (Nautical Stairway) project. Widely criticized as impractical…

Race to Nowhere Begins Today
The Singlehanded Sailing Society’s LongPac Race, which began this morning, is arguably the most unusual contest on San Francisco Bay’s annual sailing calendar. Not only do competitors in its single- and doublehanded divisions have to race 400 miles — a remarkable distance compared to other Bay Area races — but the course takes them 200…
Bismarck Dinius Trial Begins
The trial of Bismarck Dinius, who many believe to be a scapegoat in the 2006 death-by-speedboat of Lynn Thornton, opened yesterday in Lake County. By all accounts, the prosecutor ended up helping the defense’s case in a number of ways, supporting our conviction that Dinius in no way contributed to Thornton’s death. ABC 7 I-Team…
Jumping to False Conclusions
We had an Obama Moment — meaning that not knowing the facts about a situation didn’t stop us from blundering to the wrong conclusion about it — in Friday’s ‘Lectronic. Our moment came when writing about Liz Clark of the Santa Barbara-based Cal 40 Swell, which is currently in French Polynesia. We assumed that the…
Do You Know What Time It Is?
Sierra Behlmer, a charming 13 year old, enjoys a swing on the halyard of the Beneteau 473 Greetings at the Isthmus at Catalina. Her stepdad Greg and mom Teri Weeger had just finished a three-year circumnavigation, and Sierra was lucky enough to join them for about a third of it. latitude/Richard© Latitude 38 Media, LLC…
Clipper Cove Meeting Today at 1 p.m.
In the June issue we featured Mirian Saez, Director of Operations at Treasure Island, and her objective of turning the island into an inviting place for boaters. In an effort to clear out Clipper Cove — and keep it cleared out — Saez and her staff have developed a basic plan to require permits to…
Gear Up with Latitude
Did you know that, in a recent scientific study, the Foundation of Ridiculous Studies found that underwear models were more attracted to sailors who wore Latitude 38 gear? "There’s something so totally hot about a man who wears pink," gushed Victoria Zeekret. Don’t believe us? Well, we can’t really blame you but Latitude 38 gear…
