ClubBuzz: Pics from the Cruise-Out to St Francis YC and a look inside the world of Championship Sailboat Racing

Cruise-Out Thanks
Many thanks to Shannon Amerman and Jim Peterson, who were hosts for the Cruise-Out to St. Francis Yacht Club. The weather was perfect and the hospitality perfect. The fleet was nestled close to the Yacht Club building making for an intimate The Club at Westpoint temporary outpost.

Congratulations to PICYA Commodore Larry Mayne
The annual circumnavigation of Treasure Island to commemorate the World’s Fair anniversary was led by club member, and PICYA Commodore, Larry Mayne. The fleet of vessels from clubs all over the bay area formed up and paraded around TI. Russell and Tina White brought Hugo to St Francis and picked up the cruise-out contingent for a stately cruise around TI. 

Enjoy the amazing pictures below.
