After completing four of six races, the Pepper/Williams team are atop the leaderboard at the International Star Class World Championships in San Francisco. They are leading the 66-boat fleet (barely! -- on the tie-break) deep with "rock stars" after winning yesterday's race, the only team so far to win two races. Details on the St. Francis Yacht Club website. Click here for previous posts here on the BOB about our own Carl "Tiny"Williams (NZL, sailing team).
