When traveling, no matter the time frame, be it a day, a week, or longer, one can count on missing local news of any type. Most of the news is everyday stuff, not very memorable and hardly repeated. But, this past April, a local tragedy occurred that will affect many locals forever and most of us quite a bit. This was the tragic result of an incident that involved a sailboat and its crew during a race around the Farallon Islands off the coast of San Francisco Bay. Two articles were written recently in Marin magazine that caught the eye of this reader. I will condense the information that the writer included in the article. The story was well researched and the 3 survivors were able to add details. The crewmen were the only witnesses since the boat was actually west of the islands when the tragedy occurred.
Details will follow soon.
Low Speed Chase was the name of the 38 foot sloop involved.
Lake Tahoe, California's Alpine playground, is anchored on the west shore by Homewood/Tahoma, straddling two counties:Placer and El Dorado. The mayor of Tahoma posts information related to the area and items of interest to residents and visitors alike. Its goal is to be informative, humorous, and timely. Hope you enjoy the site.
