Sailing the Bay

While the focus of this book is on sailing San Francisco Bay this book offers much to all travel on the bay whether in kayak, windsurfer, powerboat or sailboat. Full of nautical and maritime history and lore. Marine articles from local newspapers. Plenty of tips on wide range of conditions one can expect on the bay (wind and the fog). Full of tips on the different micro bays (West Bay, North Bay, San Pablo Bay, the Delta, Sausalito, East Bay, South Bay and Beyond the Golden Gate Bridge (aka Potato Patch) within the San Francisco Bay. Included are harbors and boat launches located throughtout San Francisco Bay. While I learned to sail in San Francisco as a child, I have done most of my sailing in Southern Cal which is a lot calmer than San Francico Bay so this book is valuable resource for anyone who want to enjoy and challenge the conditions of the San Francisco Bay area waterways!
