Lately all the cool sailing happenings have been taking place in SF. Between the America's Cup, L'Hydroptere, the skiff racing and my own amazing sail on Sunday, SF seems to be the center of the sailing universe. On Friday the St Francis YC hosted the 14th annual Bridge to Bridge run. All the fastest boats, skiffs, cats, kites and boarders get together for a 4 mile race from the Golden Gate to the Bay Bridge. An all out downwind sprint. L'Hydroptere did the course before everyone else and the crew was disappointed they only hit 37 in 20 knots of wind. The kiters won the actual race and good on them. See the race in the vid below.
On Sunday we were hitting 7 knots on our speedo and humming along thru the fog and it was amazing. We had a nice run up to Tiburon and lunch there. After, we tore up Raccoon and then headed home. Another beautiful day on our wonderful bay!
