Check with construction supply companies . Not like Home Depot but contractor supply companies that supply things like saw blades, concrete release,safety equipment etc.Google sand bags. WS |

There is a sand bag filling station at the entrance to the Palo Alto sailing area. Not sure if they have free "bags" but there's a mountain of sand there for the taking. I can check later this week I have a customer down there.

I love that GIF you're using for your avatar. That said, somehow I think it would be funnier if it just kept searching, rather than offering the last two comments. But, that's just me. It's still pretty humorous. |

How many do you need? We could probably spot you a few or include a larger # in our next order (next week and we have them in a few days after the order).

Question is, what would happen if those were laid down on San Pablo bay muck. We have a secret spot that works great on a medium to high tide, but is too exposed otherwise. A few yards of hard bottom would increase our sailable days there. Case in point, last three days were sailable if there had been a bit more water.
