You can find most of these events in the all-new ASMBYC Calendar.

Champagne Series

Champagne Series starts this Saturday, Jan 23rd, predicted to be the first day of sun in a long time.  Go to sbryc.org to enter, the online entry works really great and you boat will be added to the list of competitors. Cool. If you are thinking of doing the two races, and want to help insure that a lot of boats sign up, sign up yourself.  This will encourage your less adventurous competitors to sign up. Bandit is racing.

Ship Rock Race

Saturday January 30th is the PSSA Ship Rock race, this is for single and double handed boats, the NOR is posted at www.pssala.com.

Topanga & Return Race

San Fernando Valley YC is having their “Topanga & Return” race for Cruisers on Jan 30th. Hospitality will follow at SCCYC.  I could not find anything posted at http://sfvyc.us/sfvyc-rcsch.html.  But let me recommend these guys as a fun, salty bunch.

ASMBYC Mobile

ASMBYC mobile interface

ASMBYC mobile interface

Look at this site on your mobile device and you’ll see a different, simpler interface.

Layout

The site title also acts as the home link. That’s followed by the four latest posts. After that comes search, followed by the pages. At the bottom, after About, is a link to take you to the regular web version should you want that.

Same Info

The same information is available either way. The exception is the calendar, which doesn’t work in the mobile interface but does in the regular web version.

Event Posts

Since all of the events in the calendar also have blog posts you will still have access to the same information with the mobile version if your mobile device doesn’t support the regular web interface.

Mobile Post

If all of this has your head spinning, consider this: I’m posting this from my phone!

An Honor

It is such an honor to be the Commodore of this prestigious institution, one that has been around since 1962.  This year we have a new web site and great new social networking tools.

New Chairs

Historian Chair: DRYC 1965 S/C David Feinstein will make sure that our decisions are informed and guided by memories of the institution
State Affairs Chair: Anne Sacks, President of Recreational Boaters of California
Local Government Chair: David Lumian of Fairwind Yacht Club
Angler Chair: Vic Jedlicka of Del Rey Yacht Club

Regular Activities

We have planned a more extensive Safety in Sailing Seminar headed by Fleet Surgeon Dr. Norm Carabet, which will involve actual demonstrations.

We continue our Racers Forum to confront the current issues of our sailors, and this will be the 2nd year of the Interharbor Challenge Regatta.

Looking Forward

All in all, it will be a very busy year at ASMBYC and I look forward to seeing all of our delegates at the first regular meeting of ASMBYC, on Thursday, February 11th at 7:00 p.m. at South Coast Corinthian Yacht Club.
