As to a Saturday start, we are still pursuing this. If anyone has sway with the Corinthian Yacht Club it might be possible still. They have been so accommodating in the past in letting us use their race deck, and this year is no different. The complication is the arrival of classic yachts on Saturday, which complicates their space in the harbor.

Have you talked to Peter and Shama?

 

[DaveH]

yes, wheels are in motion.
We felt it was important to publish a confirm-able date, but are continuing to discuss Saturday with all parties.

Hmmm. Past years Wooden Boat Festivals have been held in conjunction with the SHTP. The Festival runs on Sunday. Boats arrive Saturday after Transpac entries sail off. Why not this year?

Start Date has Been Delayed a Day, to June 23

Jackie Philpott , working with CYC's Jim Erskine, has negotiated the start date on the Saturday of June 23. One day later than our current NOR, which will be amended. Thanks to Jim for pursuing further with the harbor team at CYC to make sure all the SHTP boats can be accommodated along with the arriving Wooden Boats.

Way to go, Jackie! Did you put the extra charm hold on Jim with lemony bread or chocolate
