This sail is from Berkeley, as though it were on Benjamin Walters. The location is being set automatically based on the boat but the actual location is Berkeley Marina, O Dock.
Our first sail with the City of Berkeley Summer Camp...9-13 year olds from Berkeley who want to see what it is like out there. Could be the start of more sails for the City of Berkeley who provide free berthing for Aleta.
