SEA Racers,
The United States Sailing Association is the national authority for sailing. It represents the U. S. in the ISAF (International Sailing Federation), the IOC (International Olympic Committee), and at all levels inside the U. S. The Northern California Yacht Racing Association (of which I am Chair) represents USSA Area G for racers in most of Northern California and part of Nevada. That's how sailboat racing is governed. USSA publishes the " Racing Rules of Sailing 2009-2012" (RRS) that governs all sailboat/board racing in the U.S. |

 It might have been the first time ever seen - pirates, wenches, skippers, intro students, dogs, kids and parents marching with a 15 foot SEA banner down the streets of Sausalito. Candy got tossed (okay, some consumed, too), and all had a great time.
Could this be SEA's FIRST ANNUAL 4th of July Parade?
Let's just say AJ's planned raffle and treats after the parade topped the event. Thanks to AJ for making this event happen for SEA! And, thanks to all the marchers for helping SEA spread the word - in style! You guys are what make SEA a great sailing community! AARG!

 SEA members spent a day helping Summer Sailstice 2010 at Treasure Island be a success.
This annual event is becoming an attraction for all sailors, young and old, who love and want to share the spirit of sailing. Leslie, AJ, Karen and Barbara served up gruel to hungry folks and met some fun sailors, including a knot tying master - someone who might make an appearance for SEA soon!

It couldn’t be a normal birthday celebration in The San Francisco Bay. John Paul Watts is not your normal sort of guy. At the turn of 70 he’s still looking to raise sails and foist his sailing addiction onto any innocent passing by. Clearly a feat he has managed over the years.
The plan had started out simply enough. Four boats with crew - two boats from Sausalito Tackful (22 Santana) and Fayaway (23 Ranger), and others from SF, Summer Solstice (34 Tartan) and Wotta Lark (22 Santana) - would sail and potluck on Angel Island. Brew, wine and good food were readied and stowed. Weather gods also decided to pay tribute, providing dark clouds, strong winds and choppy waters, to spice up the festivities.

San Francisco's Opening Day of the Bay - Legends of the Sea. Courtesy of Pacific Inter-Club Yacht Association
Opening Day on the Bay, on the last Sunday in April, is the Northern Californian sailing season's official opening day. Dating back to 1917 and organised by the Pacific Inter-Club Yacht Association, any vessels can take part in the parade as long as they register beforehand. With a different theme picked each year, boats are encouraged to adorn their decks with appropriate decoration. The procession regularly features tug boats, clean-up boats and tour boats.
