Sounds like a lot of fun; wish I was there. Actually, I think I was there sailing a Capri 14.2 in the bay for about 10 years. I would like to share my experience with how to right the boat when capsized far out in the bay. Also, yes, beaching it has the greatest advantage. I mostly single handed the boat so I did moor in two different locations. there are some tricks to that. Please email me for the boring stories. Best Wishes and happy/safe sailing to you. What a great way to experience the Bay and marine life. ronblett@aol.com Please send photo.
