Cal 20 towing Wylie Wabbit
Richard and Stephen (Cal 20) tow Erik and Merrick (Wylie Wabbit) out to the starting area of the Berkeley Midwinters on Sunday, January 11. The Berkeley Circle had surprisingly nice breeze, enough for a pleasant twice-around windward-leeward course in a fading ebb. The upwind legs were mostly one-tack beats; the downwind legs were headstay reaches. See complete results from Saturday and Sunday on Jibeset. ©2026 norcalsailing.com
