We spent a fabulous three day weekend at Angel Island October 21-23rd. We actually got up there late on Thursday the 20th, though it was not a midnight run like our trip to the Wheelchair Regatta. We headed up there after work Thursday and …

Saturday on the Delta
The sailboats got underway around ten am after some small struggles freeing anchors from the delta mud and weeds. We heard the other part of our group, who were in Rio Vista, heading out earlier. Hopefully everyone will meet up safely tonight in Beneci…
