Polynesian Vakas Heading for San Francisco
We watched in awe last year as this traditional vaka drove to windward across Neiafu Harbor, Tonga, in a light breeze. This hand-built vessel would later join six others en route to Hawaii, then San Francisco.latitude/Andy©2011 Latitude 38 Media, LLC Every day of the year a wide variety of vessels enter San Francisco’s Golden Gate,…
TransPac-ers Get a Case of the Slows
With much of the fleet at, or past the halfway mark, the 46th TransPac is turning out to be a pretty compelling yacht race. After their remarkably fast leap off the coast, the big boats have consistently seen their breeze drop and become more variable as they compress against Monday’s starters. Nowhere is this better…
TransPac Big Boats Blazing
Hap Fauth’s R/P 74 Bella Mente is tearing up the racetrack en route to what looks like a new Barn Door record. © Sharon Green The big boats in the 46th TransPac are smoking down the course, having put up some big numbers since their start on Friday afternoon. Hap Fauth’s R/P 74 Bella Mente,…
Stuck on Banderas Bay — And Lovin’ it!
The Zen Sailing Federation T-shirts are ready! You can’t buy one, you have to get one the old-fashioned way, by earning it! At which point we give it to you for free. While supplies last. You can’t have a Zen shirt without the Buddha eyes on the front guiding you, now can you? latitude/Nick© Latitude…
“I Don’t Give a Rat’s Ass”
We weren’t sure whether to laugh or shudder when we read Carl J. Carlson’s report on a most unwelcome midnight visitor. In the end, we did both. "I anchored my 40-ft Catana Paradox in Barra de Navidad for a week in March while my wife went home to do tax paperwork and see the kids,"…
Understanding Customer Wants and Needs
Pedro Fernandez de Valle, whose dream was to build the 400-berth Marina Riviera Nayarit in La Cruz, says he now has a much better understanding of his customer’s wants and needs. This after doing the Puddle Jump from Mexico to the Marquesas and Tahiti as one of an all-Mexican crew aboard his uncle Enrique Aldrete’s…
Seahorse Has Great Taste
That looks familiar! latitude/LaDonna©2011 Latitude 38 Media, LLC For 34 years, Latitude 38 has been something of an anonomly among monthly magazines. Rather than a one-, two-, or even three-month lag between the time we wrap up an issue and the time it’s in your hands, it’s usually more like four or five days. That’s…
Seven Men Missing in the Sea
As the survivors of Sunday’s tragic fishing boat accident just off Baja’s Isla San Luis — most of whom were fishing buddies from California — make their way home, the Mexican navy and the U.S. Coast Guard are continuing to search for seven missing passengers. Jonathan Carver, whose father-in-law Donald Lee of San Ramon is…
LongPac’ers Get Hammered
Twenty-seven boats started the Singlehanded Sailing Society’s LongPac Wednesday and, as of this morning, only four boats were still racing — all of them singlehanded entries. Bob Johnston’s J/92 Ragtime! was the first to touch 126° 40’W, and is 170 miles away from the Bay after a blistering outbound leg. The next closest boat is…
Sailagram: A Snapshot of March Sailing
