Some pictures from our cruise on the SF Bay over the Labor Day weekend. After a great sail around the water front and Alcatraz we stayed overnight at Belvedere Cove / Tiburon. That anchorage gets a little rolly once in a while, but you're all on your own as the depth is only 4-6ft at low tide. No problem for the Tartan 34C with the center board up! The views at sunset of downtown San Francisco are nothing short of spectacular. Next day we ventured out of the Golden Gate since the weather was really nice (no fog!), and the tide was cooperating nicely. Out there it is a different world, very tranquil, actually much less wind than inside the bay, believe it or not. We saw plenty of marine life and I tried my luck to catch some of the salmon, but alas, to no avail. After a total of 75miles crisscrossing the Bay we were pretty exhausted returning home!
