Regarding Stick, it's not so bad. We just park on the opposite side of the street now. Fewer people in the park itself, and the wind has been fantastic.
Only bottleneck is getting through the gap in the RVs and over the fence w/ your gear. Sometimes you have to wait a few seconds, so you can keep your distance from other people rigging up or coming and going. |
Can you clarify where across the street people park? Do you park parallel on the street or in the little lot near the Gate 1 sign? Last weekend I was going to go sailing for the first time in a long time, saw the situation, and drove down to Haskins instead because I saw no one else out. Then today I went to the stick again, and was dissuaded by no one being out and not knowing where others are parking. I feel nervous about leaving my cell phone or wallet locked in my car at all now at stick.
Also, about Haskins - do people not park in the Atreca or patheon pharma parking lots anymore? Do you actually park on Haskins at the end of the road? Some slightly sketchy looking dudes hanging out there too.
Thanks in advance |

It looks like the office buildings have cordoned off the parking places. I parked a couple times at the end last week with no problems.
There are three or four public parking spots at the end of the street just before you drive into the Recology site. The parking spots are located on the right. You'll have to rig on the walkway there and still do your best billy goat impression climbing down the path to the water.
Last Sunday afternoon, about 15 muscle cars drove into the garage of the first office building. I don't know what was planned - but within minutes the South City police were there.
Remember Haskins is best sailed going into a high tide. |

At YipieYo
At stick most people park across from the RV's next to the curb but not in the parking lot in front of the gate. Don't block the gate on weekdays they're doing construction. You'll see the obvious launch area. Today, Saturday< there were two people when we showed up at four and two of us sailed until six or so. What time did you get there?
RE safety of you car it seems safe enough. Weird but I rank it above most of the other sailing spots. You could double park right next to the RV's which is what some people are doing. |

We have had probably a dozen thefts on our block in Potrero Hill but I have never heard of a theft at candlestick. As for wallet I just leave mine at home. The carpets are such a fabulous enhancement to the stick. Thank you Bob!
Sailed Berkeley yesterday and was reminded how nice it is with the fake grass and the hoses, all paid for by the coastal commission. Perhaps we should do some advocacy to get improvements at the stick... |

Any changes to last year's status at the Stick? Bathroom and shower status?
