April 2001 Cruise-out - Sequoia YC, Redwood City, CA

Slip Assignments: Since there is a severe shortage of slips, nearly none, we will raft up in the cove. We will have several inflatables available for those who wish to go ashore to explore. There will be two tie ups for those among us who have a difficult time climbing on and off boats.

Activities Schedule: We will be hosted by Presidio Yacht Club in Horseshoe Cove next to the north tower of the Golden Gate Bridge.

Presidio Yacht Club is having a wedding that aftenoon in the main clubhouse, so we won't be able to have dinner ashore. We will have a potluck dinner aboard starting about 6:00 PM or 1800 for the military types among us.

Prior to dinner, we have been invited to enjoy coctails in the upstairs lounge at the yacht club.

See you all at the Cove

Opening Day - April 29

Sunday morning, we will be able to sail out of the cove right into the parade for those who want to join it. For the rest, make a sharp left turn out of the cove and sail over to Racoon Straits to get blessed by the people on a navy ship anchored there.
