There are existing teams from last year that will likely carry over.  Other teams will form over the coming weeks.  Some teams will form the day of the tournament.

What were the teams from humboldt?

I hung with Brandi and her guest.  I think Greg hung with his cohorts from work.  It's very informal.  Many people failed to launch with their teams, but no penalties were levied...

Newbie Question(s):

Is this an event a beginner kayak should attempt to try?

And if so, anybody wanna pick-up a rookie yak'r on their team???

Eric, what is the 'max' # of anglers for the event? I want to come up but I probably won't know for a while because D-36 scheduled an enduro on that weekend again this year. jim

I'd like to come this year, can I use my tent trailer at the camp? Also, I'm a fellow newbie and would be looking for a team. I have my safety gear, but haven't fished the ocean yet; mostly the sac river and delta. Any help would be appreciated.

IMO, this event is a great opportunity for newbies to find their sea legs. The launch is super protected and there will be a hundred other kayakers there ready to lend you a hand. Make sure you have the proper safety gear. Even if the weather is nasty, you can still safely fish the cove.

Saltydog, it doesn't matter if a 1000 people show up. There will always be a place for you.

That "Max" number I mentioned may just be motivation for the slackers...   

I am closing registration on 4/15/11.

G-wiz.  You are welcome to fish with my team.  Last year we were Team Homebrew but I fish all year with the Loose Screw Team.  I'm not sure which group I will fish with this year but you are welcome to join.

It would be best to extend it till the holiday for most slackers. 4/20 

You are welcome to fish with my team...  but you are welcome to join.

Hey Martin,
Thanks!!! And just noticed you're on the other-side of the hill from me; I'm in Hayward...Lets talk more about that weekend/event!

I'm planning to come to Shelter cove this year. I have all the necessary fishing gear, a Trident 13, wet suit, PDF, VHF radio, horn, and compass. What else should I bring to be safe on the water?

You should search the site to find and review one or more of the numerous threads about this - sounds like you have the basic necessities.

I'm glad you're coming!
