Sail a Byte Day – Invitational, 10AM -- Our fleet throws this event, which gives interested individuals
a chance to try out a boat. If you know someone who is a good prospective
Byte sailor, please send their
name to Gail Yando. Fleet members are encouraged to attend and to lend
their boat for this event. This is, coincidentally, Opening Day on the
Bay, and a fun time to be out on the water -- and there's a party at
the club in the afternoon. |

Gold
Country Regatta -- on Scotts Flat Lake, near Grass Valley, CA.
Lake sailing (shifty) in a beautiful location. There's
a BBQ Saturday night and breakfast Sunday. It's usually beautiful with moderate winds, but we've seen quite a variety
of situations. You can make campground reservations or stay at a motel
within easy driving distance. |

Clear
Lake Clinic -- The Byte fleet returns to Clear Lake for a 4-day Byte
clinic for all sailing abilities. Oh, the fun of sailing in warm, flat
water and good breezes!! Note: Sailors under age 18 must be
accompanied by a parent or guardian. We hope to have two instructors,
one for the new rig, the other for the old rig. Gail has reserved 3 cabins with kitchens from Wednesday night
through Sunday at the Fun Time RV
Park. Anticipated cost is $125 for the 4 days for housing
(including non-sailors) . We will also share cooking
(and related food costs). We probably can accommodate those who cannot
come for the full four days. More information to follow. |

Byte
Clinic at Jack London Aquatic Center
(JLAC) -- Dan Ouellet is instructor. Usually lots of practice
starts. Great practice. And the ideal situation is to come to this
clinic, leave your boat at JLAC for the night, and then sail across the
estuary to the Encinal YC regatta the next day (see next event). |
