~~~~~~~P15 Weekend/Daysail at Foster City Lagoon, May 27-28~~~~~~~~~

An event specially organized for the P15's by Dory Taylor and Oscar
Koechlin.

We will start the sail at 10am., racing to the restaurant complex, having
lunch, racing to the end of the canal (very wide - made for sailing) and
back to lauching ramps at Boat Park. Assemble between 8-8:30am., launch
8:30-9:30, start sail at 10am.

Foster City Lagoon has both flat water and good winds blowing off SF Bay.
There are several bridges to cross under, and boats with taller masts than
the P15 may not fit underneath. P19's will not fit.

Free Launch, well maintained ramp, 2 lanes, space to tie up 20 Potters; 1
portable toilet enclosure, space to park 30 cars with trailers, plus 20
normal parking spaces (all this normally empty). NO ENGINES ALLOWED (nor
needed).

Space on 2 underutilized well maintained docks at Restaurant waterside
complex for 12 Potters .

For lunch, we will chose among four large restaurants all with waterside
tables (a total of some 40/4people tables alongside windows on the water):
Chevys Fresh Mex (Enchilada Platter $6.99) Waterfront Pizza (1 topping 12"
$9.55, hamburger 1/2#'s $2.99) Mr. Fong's Seafood Restaurant (Cashew chicken
$7.25) O'Donnegans Irish restaurant (Angus Burger $5.45 with fries)

Restaurant complex is mid-way of the 5 mile sail.

At night you could anchor in the large lagoon and spend the night at anchor,
or dockside at Boat Park (checked with the Foster City Police and they told
me I could leave my van and trailer there overnight - even though
technically the park is closed it is not locked up and there should be no
problem - all that I would advise is that we should be quiet since it is a
residential area).

Directions: From Freeway 92 (San Mateo Bridge is Highway 92) exit at Foster
City Blvd direction SE (this is the first exit in San Mateo after the
bridge). Follow Foster City Blvd SE to make a RIGHT on Bounty Dr. and
immediate left on Boat Park (you are there!)
