Event Information

Description

An 80mile trip, using the spinnaker most of the way there and nav skills needed for the trip back. Sail from Oakland to Richmond might happen the day before. The event sails from near Richmond in the SF Bay to Stockton. (Great spinnaker practice for those that couldn't make the Coastal Cup.) The challenge to sail upwind 82 miles to Oakland, sailing as much as possible, is not to be sniffed at. Learn a bit about Delta Sailing along the way. The afternoon Delta Breeze of 20+ knots of warm wind and flat waters is awesome. The currents are a big part of planning for both the trip there and back.

Over all, it's a blast. https://youtu.be/TF0rUmmRgRw

Can't take O'Hana on this one. Renaissance and others can go. Hope to have 2 boats enter into the frey. If getting out in one day is not an option, Benicia is a good stop. The cost per day for the boats and a leader is $325 x min of 4, for members and $390 for full price (non-members).  Can add to if needed.
