Ok, I know I pimp this race every year, but it is such a good time. Sloop Tavern is hosting on May 7 & 8 its annual Race to the Straits. Boats start based on their rating, such that if PHRF is accurate all boats should finish at the same time. Saturday we race from Shilshole to Point Hudson where there is a great party with free beer and wine. Sunday we race back. Although this is a "race" there is a very wide assortment of boats. Last year there were almost 60 boats, and this year looks like even more, including some level starts for the 54 and 73 raters. Anyone with questions, just let me know. As I am now on the board for the Sloop Tavern Yacht Club, I would be happy to do anything I can to help people out.
