Monterey Adventure:
Plans are together with 6 boats set to make the trip and enjoy the fun.   We still have a limited number crew spots on one or more legs.   If you would like to come as crew, let me know as soon as possible - they will go on a first come first served basis.

Richmond Yacht Club Cruise-in and BBQ
We now have a date but it is not in August as we expected - it is JULY 14/15 and will be a BBQ.

San Francisco Cup:
As we said in the last edition of Telltale, this regatta has been moved to South Beach Yacht Club - September 22 and 23.  The Saturday races will be windward / leeward courses using a Time on Time handicap.  The Sunday Course will be a course selected from the Inter Club South Bay courses using Time on Distance handicap.

Telltale:
We are making some changes to the way Telltale is distributed - hopefully bring us into the 21 Century.

The Changes / Options are:

A.     Start with the next issues, Telltale will be posted on the Fleet 1 web site and you will receive email with the URL pointer so you can read it at your leisure.

B.     If you would prefer,  you may choose one of the following options:

      1.  Receiving an email with Telltale attached in .pdf format.

   2.  Still receive a hard copy via the US post

       by responding to this email stating your preference - #B.1 or #B.2.

C.   The 2007 budget for distribution hardcopy (6 editions) of Telltale is $300.00.  Any money save by using either #A, or #B.1 will be use to provide wine at the Annual Dinner in Jan 2008.

Telltale call for articles:
Members must be sailing to all sorts of exciting places on the Bay and Delta.   Share your adventures with other members so they either can enjoy the same fun or not make the same mistakes by sending an article to Paul Goss at - pgoss@gosspartnerships.com - before the 15th of the month.
