Find a boat, find a ride, find crew for sailing on the Bay
THE SEMINAR
We will hold our annual cruising seminar for Baja Ha-Ha sailors and cruisers preparing to head south. The seminar will run from 4 p.m. to 5 p.m. with half an hour of Q&A from 5 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. Doors will open for the cruising seminar at 3:45 p.m.
This year's fall Crew Party will be an information-packed afternoon. We're excited to present the first-ever Mexico cruising seminar featuring Brady and Blue from Cruisers Academy Tahoe and SV Delos. The sailing duo will share knowledge from their many thousands of miles of offshore cruising, and the past few years they've spent teaching blue-water passage making and cruising in the Sea of Cortez.
'Assistant Poobah' Patsy Verhoeven will share experiences from her numerous decades of sailing her Gulfstar 50 Talion in the last 15 Baja Ha-Ha's. We'll have tables from Baja Ha-Ha sponsors to answer questions about heading south, while Spaulding will run the bar to benefit their programs, and Casablanca Mediterranean food truck will be parked outside.
THE PARTY
The Fall Crew List Party will be from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m.
The event will be mostly outside, in the Spaulding Marine Center boat yard, with vendor tables set up inside. (This is Sausalito — so please dress in layers!) Casablanca Mediterranean Food Truck will serve from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m., and Spaulding will offer a no-host bar, with all proceeds going to benefit their education programs.
Vendors will be on hand to answer your questions about cruising and heading south to Mexico, along with local partners who want to help you get sailing in the Bay. San Francisco Sailing Science Center will set up an entertaining and educational exhibit.
Our crew parties are geared towards helping people find sailing opportunities for cruising, racing or daysailing. The Fall Crew List party is ideal for boat owners seeking crew who want to head south to Mexico and for crew who want to do the same. It’s also well suited for folks looking for midwinter racing crew or anyone who just wants to sail the Bay.
Everyone is welcome, come as you are.
