Yesterday was the third seminar organized by the race committee. I had to fly out of LAX because there are very few flights between Orange County and Oakland on a Sunday of winter. There was no strike of the BART like last time but I decided to still rent a car since it makes the logistic a little bit easier.

Subjects were varied :

• Optimizing your boat (Racing or Cruising)
• Practice with Crew
• Provisioning, Gear and Food Storage
• Getting home: Shipping vs Sailing

Packed room at the Richmond Yacht Club

The content was on a light side but it was still nice to meet some people. I was able to take an earlier flight (7:55PM instead of 8:50PM) out of Oakland so I was home by 10PM.
