San Francisco Bay +1There are now 6 boats sailing on San Francisco Bay! USA 288 - the black beauty - was sold at the Strictly Sail Pacific Boatshow in Oakland earlier this month. The Open 5.70 will be sailing out of the Alameda estuary alongside the other new boat on the Bay - USA 290. For more information about the Open 5.70s in San Francisco you can contact Open Sailings local rep - Barry Demak. |
Pogo 2 Tooling ready to ship…It’s been a busy month at Open Sailing with many races and the Oakland boat show.

With 9 hours difference, we call the French at 6am our time (it’s only 3pm in France), so plenty of time to talk to everyone there and get things organized. Read more. |
