BAADS strives to make all aspects of sailing accessible. To fulfill this mission, we offer weekly small boat & keelboat sailing out of South Beach Harbor, next to Oracle Park.
BAADS is a 501(c)(3) charitable organization which relies on tax-deductible donations to run our programs. Boat donations and equipment are also accepted.
The San Francisco Fire Department will conduct a water rescue drill for a Sailor Overboard on September 7th at 10:00. We’ll be meeting at Pier 40. The drill will also cover what to do after calling 911 and while waiting for help to arrive.
After the rescue, there will be a lively Q & A session discussing how to take care of the sailor once they are back on board. Note that BAADS will provide a ‘volunteer’ who will go into the water for the drill 😉
Most of us will watch the drill from the pier, but for those of us who want to observe the rescue up close and personal we plan to have a keelboat available. Lunch will be provided after the drill, followed by a cleanup and maintenance session for the BAADS fleet.
It’s a wrap for the 2024 Herb Meyer Regatta 2024, and we wish to thank all the many volunteers, racers, and safety crew for making this race weekend such a big success!
Safety Day 2024 was attended by 25 BAADS and SBYC sailors, plus representatives from the San Francisco Fire Department Engine 35. The day included presentations on keelboat, small boat and dock safety awareness, preparation, and response which sparked discussions giving us all tangible examples of fundamental safety principles in action. A big thank you to our Safety Director, Charles Weinbar.
A copy of the Safety Day slide deck, plus other resources has been posted at https://www.baads.org/safety/. The safety event was followed by a great BAADS dock clean-up (thank you Scouts!) and we as always thank you!
BAADS welcomes your submissions to our semi-monthly newletter the Pirate’s Log – especially from our fellow sailors in and around our own sailboats.
