WE NEED BOATS FOR THIS EVENT!!!

This is the weekend after Wine & Roses regatta, just up the road in Santa Barbara. John is working out a way for boats to be stored during the week in secured parking at Ventura harbor if you want to drop off your boat on the way back south from W&R.

=========================================================

Coming up next month; August 22nd to be exact we have the Tri-Point Anacapa Race. This is a “FULL ON” 33 mile beachcat ocean race with a majority of the race being screaming beam reaches to and from the island and a quick upwind run behind Anacapa. This is not as technical as the Milt Ingram Race and will provide a great opportunity for those wanting to “cut their teeth” sailing around Anacapa. As for the weather this time of year we can always expect those excellent sailing chamber of commerce days with and average 10 kt wind, bright sun, and loads of wild life both on and off shore.

& the Beach Cat Addendum

BeachCats

This race will START at the MANDALAY BOUY which if off the coast of Ventura abeam to the MANDELEY POWER STATION. PBYC usually starts the beachcats last and you can anticipate a 11:30 AM start. We have never had a problem with Beachcats making it to the start line on time in the past; however, should you find yourself needing a tow hail any of the boats heading out as they have always been willing to tow a beachcats in the past. From there the race will go to PLATFORM GINA, to the EAST END OF ANACAPA, up the back side of ANACAPA rounding the WEST END OF ANACAPA back to the VENTURA HARBOR. If you would like the *.GPX file with all the waypoint pre-loaded contact me off list and I will send them to you.
