What a spectacular sight it was this past Friday to see the 10-strong Cal 25 class leading the fleet around the race course on a beautiful night. Once again the Edison Boat Club threw a great party afterward – splendid evening all around. This Saturday is the Crescent Sail Yacht Club Regatta.

2015 GLYC – Early Bird — May-16
Six of us made our way out to the start line for the DRYA season-opening GLYC regatta in very dense fog. Sort of fun especially as the CSYC contingent navigated as a group effort with a few humorous moments, but wouldn’t want to do that every week! We got in one race in pretty good […]
