Great Bass 2:
Let's schedule the first Hobie AI regatta for Saturday 9/8/2012. The plan is to launch from Horse Shoe Cove in Sausalito at 7:30 AM and sail west under the gate and meet up at Kirby Cove on the west side of the cove at 1-1:30 PM for a beach party/shore lunch on the bluff. Then head back to Horse Shoe cove around 3-4PM. As far as fishing, I think heading up to Muir and troll or mooch for salmon makes sense. If the bite is slow we can fish rockfish. We don't have to all do the same thing so if some folks want to fish the north tower and others want to head up to Muir, that's OK but will need to buddy up. Non-AI paddle or peddle kayaks can also participate but will have to buddy up and file a flight plan. Horse Shoe to Kirby Cove is a short easy paddle if the tide is outgoing which it will be in the morning. There is decent fishing close to shore for rockfish and perch around Kirby Cove. Family and friends willing to hike down to Kirby Cove can join the beach party. It is a steep 1 mile hike from the road but quite scenic. There are some picnic tables on the bluff on the west side of the cove where we will have our lunch. Nice view of the bridge and we keep an eye on our boats.

Sounds fun Fyi there are new regulations for racing out of the gate ( due to the negligent and complete disregard for human life from the last racers). No one in ncka would act that way. Have fun. Maybe ill come to the party cause idontsaillikethat
