Round The Rocks Race
Register HERE
A few things for this weekend’s upcoming Round the Rocks race.
1) As usual, we will have a competitor’s meeting Wednesday before the race (tomorrow!) at 7:30. Here are the details:
Check your inbox for the zoom link.
Topic: Round the Rocks Skippers Meeting
Time: Mar 13, 2024 07:30 PM Pacific Time (US and Canada)
2) Sailing Instructions are posted on Jibeset.
3) We’re “a bit short” on volunteers at the moment, and while we have some “maybes” it is not clear right now if we’ll have enough people to run concurrent checkins and starts. If we cannot get at least five volunteers for the starts, we’ll need everyone to check in five minutes before the first warning, which means you’ll need to get there a bit sooner, and checkins will have to go a bit faster. I know that is not anyone’s preference.
4) If you registered to race and are now planning not to, please consider volunteering, at least from 0840 through 1300 for the starts; you don’t have to stay until 1915+. Volunteering is the closest you can get to racing without having to spend all day looking for wind. Please send email to racechair@sfbaysss.org no later than Thursday night if you’d like to help.
Thank you for racing with SSS, and I look forward to seeing you Saturday.

Welcome! The San Francisco SSS offers events where singlehanded and short-handed sailors can share knowledge, gain experience, and find a structured environment to expand their horizons. The SSS encompasses everyone from a first-time, double-handed sailor to veterans of the Singlehanded TransPacific (SHTP) yacht race. We are always learning and always sharing knowledge.
