Sunny San Francisco Bay Sunday Social Sailing

Sometimes winter is the best time for sailing, especially when you have family and friends around for the holidays. This past weekend was one of those times. While we enjoy racing and cruising, there’s often nothing better than a social sail on flat water. We joined quite a few other sailors who took advantage of a pleasant 8- to 10-knot breeze on Sunday, to sail and socialize with our daughters and a cousin and friend. It’s a hard-to-beat way of enjoying life in the Bay Area.

Despite gentle breezes and flat water, we put in a reef just to keep things mellow. The world ashore is busy, and mellow was just what we were looking for. Despite the mild conditions there were many others out with a reef in or small jibs. Just chillin’ on the Bay.

We hope many of you managed to get out for a sail on the Bay or California coastline over the Thanksgiving weekend. It always reminds us how grateful we are to have the opportunity. If you got a photo of your weekend sailing, you can upload it to Sailagram here.
