Join Alameda sailmaker and sailing legend Kame Richards (Pineapple Sails) for a discussion of how tides and currents make San Francisco Bay a unique and enjoyable location to sail.

​We'll be asking questions like: Why are there tides? Why are there two tides a day? How come high tide does not happen at max flood and low tide does not happen at max ebb? What happens at Alcatraz? How does the Bay affect the waters?

​There will be the opportunity to answer your own questions during this interactive webinar.​
Special offer! New and existing IYC members can receive a $5 discount code by visiting iyc.org/members
REGISTER NOW

A Zoom link will be provided the day before the first event. Can't make it? We'll send you a recording afterwards.

​1/4 of fee will be sent to a non-profit of the speaker's choice. Kame has chosen Alameda Community Sailing Center.
