Who we are...
We're a bunch of sailors who race
Lasers in the
San Francisco Bay Area. We meet regularly to practice at a lake in
Mountain View, then go race in other hot spots world wide.
Use the buttons on the left to get
around, and email us if you don't find what you want, and hitch your
boat to the car and join us!
