Wednesday Night Sailing
Jul 28, 2010 (Wednesday) - 5:30 PM    (must-be-a-member-to-attend)
Urban Diversion
UD-East Bay
Basic Details:


Join UD as we team up with our friends, OCSC across the bay for a sail
Leave your mid-week blues at the dock and come out for a rejuvenating, twilight sail on San Francisco Bay. This Wednesday night, head out for two hours of sailing, with a fully qualified instructor, to take advantage of one of the best sailing locations in the world, at our doorsteps! Hit the water with old and new friends to break up the the stress of the work week and watch the sun set behind the Golden Gate.


Each boat takes up to 6 passengers and will have an experienced and qualified helm as your instructor. You can sit back and relax as the sun sets behind the Golden Gate Bridge, and the city begins to light up the night sky, or you can take the helm and skipper us around the bay...No experience required to join in!


Once you dock, shed your follies and join our "apres sail" mixer in OCSC's clubroom. Enjoy some of Bowen's famous Chowder or Jose's even-more-famous chili. Plus chips, beer, wine, soda and good friends old and new.


Price Includes:
  • 2 hours of sailing and relaxation on the bay.
  • All the sailing gear you will need, including jackets/spray tops and life jackets - you may bring your own if you prefer
  • Fully qualified instructor & skipper to "show you the ropes" - no pun intended!
  • A tasty chili & drinks mixer afterward, with Bowen's famous Chowder or Jose's even-more-famous chili.
  • Plus chips, beer, wine, soda.
  • An experienced instructor / very keen sailor as your host!
  • and the chance to hang out on the Bay with good friends old and new...
  • This is a staff hosted event.
  • BYOB if you wish!!!!!

Attire: Dress warmly and in layers, it can look lovely, warm and sunny on the shore but out on the Bay if it is windy, it can be cold (all the times I have been out on the Bay it has been gorgeous though). You can always take off a jumper or put one on if you bring it! No heeled shoes, please wear non-marking tennis shoes or sailing shoes. Don't forget to bring a camera to capture the sun-set!


The Catalina 32 is one of the more popular weekenders in the US, and for good reason: It has a large cockpit, mid-boom sheeting arrangement and the wide Catalina beam that creates lots of cockpit and below decks elbow room. It has a wing keel which keeps the draft short and provides some weight low in the keel. The sail plan allows for the boat to sail reasonably well. Due to its beam, it is best to sail the 32 as flat as possible.
