March 20th is the Spring Equinox. We are halfway to the Summer Solstice and the days are getting longer (at least the sunny part anyway). It sounds like as good as an excuse to go sailing as any.

So we are going to have boats set out from different places and rendezvous at Clipper Cove. We'll stop and go ashore for lunch at the cafe there near the marina. Gary has chartered a Dufore 36 from Club Nautique in Balena Bay and Jeremy has chartered a Beneteau 35 from MSA in Sausalito. Other boats may join us, but as of right now, we've got at least two. The start and end times for each boat will be different and will depend on where they are sailing from and what the skippers plan for each voyage. Expect this to be an all day event. Ignore the 7:00 am start time above, that is just to get the event on the calendar.

Meetup is free to members. It is not free to organizers, and boat owners and charter skippers pay a hefty price to participate in this Meetup Group. So we are trying something a little different with this event. RSVP and donate $25 to the group. We in turn will use the collected funds to defray the costs of the Skippers and Owners that are participating in this event. If we fail to get a couple of additional private boats and at least 32 members RSVPing for this event, the $25 cost may increase.
