The Adventure Sails team organized an Out the Gate sail bound for Stinson Beach on April 29. Members first took responsibility for recruiting boats and skippers and later for assigning crew.

Skippers had discussed this possibility at the planning meeting and indicated that they would take a possible advisory into consideration but would determine whether or not to sail based on broader considerations, including sea state and crew experience. Several days before sail day, planners made the strategic decision to consolidate crew onto two boats instead of three.
