Save The Date Plan Your Vacation!!! Marina Del Rey / San Diego Race July 4th, 5th and 6th, 2002 This is a great opportunity to tune your Beneteau and ‘Survive The Night’ with family and friends on an overnight race with an extensive cruising class for spinnaker and non-spinnaker classes. If you come north for the race, stop at the many harbors on the way up and take the whole week. If you come from the north, race down and enjoy an informal return cruise with rafts in Mission Bay and Dana Point and visit Catalina for a few days on the way back. Great bragging rights and not a huge effort. A great way to shake out your gear and systems. Sponsored by Santa Monica Windjammers’ Yacht Club in Marina Del Rey and Southwestern Yacht Club in San Diego. Information at 310/827-7692 SMWYC or 619/ 222-0438 SWYC.

Under the cloud of shock and grief of the last weeks, this will give you an opportunity to plan something patriotic and memorable next year. Watching the Independence Day celebrations from offshore will have a special meaning for us all.
