Sailing and to journey across a body of water propelled only by one of nature’s fundamental forces….wind, is one of those activities. As a sailor myself and a lover of anything nautical, my first hand experiences on some of the world’s bodies of water have provided wonderful, vivid experiences in many different conditions.

It’s like a bird's-eye view of San Francisco through a time machine. Over the years, highways replace avenues, world-famous stadiums rise in industrial zones and new homes grow out of the sand dunes.

The city's history is marked by several major events, including the 1848 Gold Rush, the 1906 earthquake and fire, women’s rights movement and the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake. 1969-1970s and the first nations, Native American occupation of Alcatraz for 180 days by students of UC Berkeley and San Francisco State university.
