Introduction

I sail a Catalina 30 out of Sausalito. We race in the local beercan races. We are a “not too serious” crew that place priority on a safe, fun sail over a first place finish. We can always use a new crewmate with a good attitude and a love of sailing.

How would you describe your sailing experience? At the end of your description include a title for yourself (look at other profiles, or the about page for ideas)

I started sailing when I was young on a little Sunfish back in Michigan. I sailed on the Great Lakes (Huron and Michigan) and Lake St. Clair. I brought my 22 O'Day out with me to California six years ago and then bought a Catalina 30 two years ago.

What type boats have you sailed on - or dream of sailing on? What sort of sailing do you do? Cruising, racing, beercans, YRA . . . Transpac??

Lightning, Venture, Oday, and now a Catalina 30. I race and cruise on the bay and do some local coastal cruising (Half Moon Bay, Farallones, Monterey). I hope to do the BaHaHa next year and would like to sail the Caribbean and Polynesia.

If you are a private boat owner -- please describe your vessel in as much detail as you can.

Catalina 30 Bermuda-Rigged Sloop

Do you have any US sailing or ASA certificates? Do you bareboat charter?

USGC SSS

Are you disabled or have limited mobility? You'll be welcomed, but it's very important for skippers to know ahead of time to keep everyone safe while sailing (you included).

No

  • Hello Mark,

    If possible for you, and accepted by the group as I am a visitor, will appreciate to integrate your crew for the daysail organized for Dec 30th.
    I live in Buenos Aires, Argentina and am visiting SF as my son is studying for a BFA degree at AAU
    I sail for more than 20 years and have a CP30 ( 31 ft sloop Frers design) that give me enjoyable moments during daysails.
    Will be happy to retribute for members visiting Buenos Aires

  • I put myself on the waiting list for a different day. I already have a commitment on Monday and am sorry to miss this opportunity. I learned to love to sail many years ago when I was married - he had a 27' Thunderbird sloop in Sausalito. I was crew and he was the captain and it was so much fun. A few years ago I had a friend with a boat in Vallejo. Please keep me in mind for another sailing day. Have fun.
