Richmond Yacht Club, Pt.Richmond California

Beer Can July 15, 2026. Light breeze for the first few starts. The wind died for a time as the final starts rounded the breakwater. Wind finally picked up enough to allow most racers to round the Bob Klein.
As we entered the channel on the way home, temps dropped and we got a weird easterly.
Lots of tug traffic tonight. Thank you racers for steering clear of the tugs and ferries.

Beer Can, July 8, 2026. Fast race, a lot calmer than last week. Didn't get a lot of shots as we had to assist one of our sailors.

I've included some photos of your race committee taken last week.

Heading out Saturday to see the fireworks -- only the 3rd time in history this has happened -- but not sure where you're allowed to go?
Here are the USCG exclusion zones.

Happy 4th of July Weekend + S.F. Bay Fireworks Exclusion Zones Wherever you're sailing this weekend, have a happy 250th 4th of July. And be prepared for crowds on the water — be safe!

Beer Can, July 1, 2026. Wow, that was an intense race. Sea state was pretty wicked with huge troughs.

Two amazing days of dinghy sailing on the Richmond Riviera.
Thank you Robin VanVliet and the race committee for your long days planning and organizing and running a beautiful regatta for our young people! Thank you parents and friends and competitors, and of course our amazing club staff and coaches.

June 24, 2026. Another fun & sporty RYC beer can. Our skipper had to work hard to keep us dry (thank you Wayne Lamprey), while Barbara prepped for a possible tow/rescue!

It was great having so many Pac Cup visitors and members out on the water - Wishing you fair winds for your upcoming crossing.
