Tonight’s Spring Crew List Party is one party you don’t want to be late to. Doors to the Golden Gate YC will open promptly at 6 p.m., which will give partygoers 15 minutes to find a spot by the windows or on shoreline for a front-row view of the Coast Guard helicopter water rescue demonstration. Originally scheduled for 6 p.m. sharp due to low-light conditions, the Coasties have agreed to hold off for a few minutes to allow attendees time to get settled in.

Andrew Vik, 37, has cruised the Med on Geja with a number of crewmembers found at the Latitude 38 Spring Crew List Party, and he’s looking for more. Of course, he also finds lots of crew — such as these lovely Italian ladies — along the way.

The party will run till 9 p.m. and costs just $7 ($5 if your ID says you’re under 25). You’ll find free munchies, a no-host bar, an all-new slideshow, YRA representatives, and short presentations by the Bear Boat Association — several member boats are looking for crew — and Andrew Vik, who has found a number of crew for his Mediterranean-based Islander 36 Geja at previous years’ parties.
