Advice, from Sailors to Sailors

A strength of the Pacific Cup over the years has been the willingness of its participants to come back year after year and share what they have learned.  Whether it's downwind driving, reading the weather, radio communications, or recipes, chances are someone has done it and is willing to talk about it.

Let's be honest here, when have you ever gotten a sailor to stop talking about it?

We've collected articles and handout materials distributed at many of our seminars for your review.  Other information is available in our forum, where you can pose questions of your own.

All of this must be read carefully, and you must use your own judgment as to how to apply some of the suggestions to your own adventure.  It goes without saying, of course, that any comments about requirements, or sailing instructions, or racing rules, are unofficial, and only the Notice of Race, Sailing Instructions, and documents explicitly referenced there are authoritative.
