Learning
For those of us who don't know how to sail, there are a few options:
- OCSC Sailing - www.ocscsailing.com - Rated 5 stars on Yelp
- Cal Sailing Club of Berkeley - www.cal-sailing.org/
- Sailing Education Adventures - www.sailsea.org
- Spinnaker Sailing - http://www.spinnakersailing.com/ - Redwood City
We'll be looking into a few options for weekend classes and let people know what's going on! :) If you have any suggestions or more info, please let us know!!
Vessels
Wayne has offered to donate a small (2-person) inflatable catamaran he never uses to the cause.
Patri wants to buy an AquaSkipper, unless someone talks him out of it. (The wired.com review suggests that the device has a significant learning curve)
There has been talk of buying a larger (30' - 40') boat as a group. There is a craigslist category for boats, here are some pretty ones:
- http://sfbay.craigslist.org/nby/boa/877250591.html
- http://sfbay.craigslist.org/eby/boa/877428755.html
- $165K, 42', designed to be a live-aboard: http://sfbay.craigslist.org/eby/boa/876218838.html (too expensive for us, probably, but interesting to see a boat designed as a live-aboard!).
- 51' for $62K, needs some work: http://sfbay.craigslist.org/nby/boa/875927469.html
- 40', $27,500: http://sfbay.craigslist.org/nby/boa/863063463.html
- 33' Cat, 1998, $95K: http://chetcomarine.com/index.asp?PageAction=Custom&ID=25
