High Winds Wreak Havoc
How about that wind yesterday? Officially, it hit 45 knots at Angel Island and SFO recorded gusts to 60. Although the wind will return to a more typical 15-25 today, small craft advisories remain in effect up and down the coast through Thursday afternoon. The strong winds wreaked their usual havoc. Improperly wound roller furling…
Old Guys Rule!

That’s why we’ve organized a special event for tomorrow (April 16)…
Speed Kills . . . Once Again
Five people were killed and seven others were badly injured aboard a 22-ft Crownline powerboat after it slammed into a small docked tugboat early Sunday evening on the IntraCoastal Waterway about 25 miles south of Jacksonville, Florida. Authorities are now looking into the reasons for the crash. It’s just wild speculation on our part, but…
A Salute to Captain Richard Phillips
Like the rest of the world, we’d like to salute Captain Richard Phillips of the cargo ship Maersk Alabama, for the selflessness and courage he demonstrated by giving himself up to Somalia pirates so his crew could go free. We found it unbelievably refreshing to see a person of such high character in the news…

Hitchin’ a Ride to Paradise
Why take your own boat to Polynesia when you can hitch a ride? © 2009 Naomi Beckord When Nathan and Naomi Beckord headed south with the Baja Ha-Ha last fall aboard their Sausalito-based Islander 36 Hurulu, they had no intention of voyaging beyond Mexican waters. "We’d budgeted for only a seven-month sailing sabbatical," explains Nathan.…
BVI Spring Regatta
Whether you were sailing in the regatta’s only one-design division, the IC 24s, or even Bareboat B, the B.V.I. Spring Regatta was warm, breezy and just downright pleasant. © 2009 Todd VanSickle It’s tough work, if you can get it, but sometimes a Racing Editor is forced to take one for the team and travel…
Pirate Hostage Killed in Raid
On April 4, the French-flagged 47-ft Colin Archer-designed Tanit, bound for Kenya and 500 miles off the Somali coast, was seized by Somali pirates who took the yacht’s five passengers — two couples and a three-year-old boy — hostage. The French Navy has steadfastly refused to negotiate with pirates in the past, and this morning…
More Exposure for Classy Classifieds
In the ‘good old days’, if you wanted to place a Classy Classified, you sent in your ad and payment by the 18th of the month and it would magically appear in the next month’s issue. Thanks to Al Gore, the internet has changed the way folks look for stuff to buy and sell. We…
