The 2013 Northern California was once again a lot of fun and we had a great turn out. There were 57 for Saturday dinnner plus another 10 who dropped by on Saturday to tour the boats.
The San Leandro YC and DelMarie Snodgrass served up a great meal on Saturday night and Randy's Raffle items were better then ever. The para sail sea anchor was purchased by silent auction by Ben Bobblett with a special thanks to John Mendoza for the donation.
Friday evening finger food potluck has become a great meal - with many great dishes and plenty of food. Sunday Breakfast was also a great time to talk with other westsailors
