Berkley Midiwnter Regatta

Happy New Year to Everyone,
As I plan my sailing calendar for the upcoming year, I'm seeking new individuals to join my crew for the Express 27 "Ergo" in 2024. The proposed sailing calendar is included. I'm particularly interested in individuals eager to learn about sail trim and flying a spinnaker.

Positions Needed:

• Foredeck: Setting and dosing the spinnaker requires agility and balance.
• Pit: Central boat position, backing up the foredeck position.
• Headsail Trimmer: Trimming the headsail and calling traffic during crossings and mark roundings.
• Please ensure you have your own safety PFD and foul weather gear.

Details for the Saturday 1/13 Race: “Only (1) Race”
START LOCATION AND TIME: The warning each day will be at 11:55 in the vicinity of Olympic Circle buoy “XOC”.
RACING AREA AND COURSES: Courses will be on the Olympic Circle, using both permanent and temporary buoys.

Details for the boat location:

• Home Port: Richmond Marina, 1160 Brickyard Cove Rd #200, Point Richmond, CA 94801
• Dock Time: 8:30 AM
• Return Time: 4:30 PM
• Meet at the silver hoist
