In the past, the fleet has done Encinal Yacht Club’s Jack Frost series and is planning to do so again this year as our white sails event (non-spinnaker). The race area is north of Treasure Island and start is approximately 0.5 nm west of the Berkeley Pier. Also note there are two races per day. The dates for Jack Frost are 11/21/15, 1/23/16, 2/27/16, and 3/19/16.</div><div class="yiv5096846634MsoNormal" style="font-size:12.8px;" id="yui_3_16_0_1_1446769909825_3021"> </div><div class="yiv5096846634MsoNormal" style="font-size:12.8px;" id="yui_3_16_0_1_1446769909825_3015">This is a great venue for novice and experienced racers.
