Satisfies NCORC, OYRA, SSS, and Long Pac Safety at Sea Seminar Requirements

Speakers: Jim Quanci refers to himself as “a repeat offender”, having raced to Hawaii too many times to keep count.  Strangely, he loves the sail home too.  He has served as Commodore of the Pacific Cup Yacht Club as well as the Singlehanded Sailing Society; Michael Moradzadeh is a seven-time Pac Cup veteran, board member, and PCYC Commodore 2010; Chuck Hawley is a nationally known speaker on marine safety, and Chair of the US Sailing Safety at Sea Committee.

Rolling website suckage

by | Dec 9, 2014

Hi Folks,

Sorry about all the downtime on this site and the ongoing problems with the forum.     This is entirely due to a major server/RAID crash at our web hosting provider.    Amazingly, it took them a week to restore their system, and it is still not completely done.  

I’m continuing to harass them about our functionality.  

All our data, including recent forum activity, are intact and backed up, so don’t worry about that.

See you on the water Sunday.

David
