New Boat ShowcaseNEW SWIFT TRAWLER 30The Swift Trawler 30 is the newest model in the range and represents Beneteau’s continuing quest to define the trawler as it should be. She packs all the luxury, performance and power you’d expect to find aboard a 40-foot boat. Her stylish, contemporary lines distin-guish her from the rest. Built for traveling long distanc-es as much as for enjoying anchorages and stopovers,
the Swift Trawler 30’s open layout is a plus for any voyage.See her at Passage Nautical.
BAVARIA S40 COUPEThe S40 Coupe simply cannot be surpassed for vari-ability. Large windows and doors transform the stern into a balcony and the cockpit into a saloon whenever you want, while the sophisticated lighting concept of-fers a 360-degree view at all times. With two double cabins and a large saloon with galley, the S40 Coupe is more than just a weekend motor yacht. The S40 exudes
luxury and sportiness with uniquespacious-ness.See her at the JK3display.
TIARA 3100 CORONETWhile maintaining the heritage of the original Tiara Series, the 31 Tiara presents herself with a touch of el-egance and style only seen from a manufacturer with over 60 years of luxury boat-building experience. The classic lines and timeless sheer are matched with mod-ern features and benefits complementing her American made pedigree. This popular boat has been a big hit in the Bay Area as it combines seakeeping a kin to a largeryacht and has hugecockpit space formany guests outfor a day’s cruiseon the water.See the Silver Seas Yachts display.
PRINCESS P49 FLYCutting through the waves at speeds up to 35 knots or cruising at a highly economical 30 knots, the new Prin-cess 49 promises to be sublimely enjoyable. She com-bines the latest Volvo IPS pod drive system with a new modified deep-V hull, providing ease of handling and maneuverability. Her social flybridge arrangement en-joys a twin helm seat, convertible L-shaped sofa and
generous seating aft.
Come see her at the Silver Seas Yachtsdisplay.
JEANNEAU VELASCO 37FAlthough slightly more compact, reinforcing a sense of intimacy and well-being, the new Velasco 37F is just as elegant as the Velasco 43F. Inside, every de-tail has been designed to increase window area, for a bright living space with magnificent 360° views.With her twin engines with shaft drive and thrusters,
the Velasco 37F redefines the modern power cruiser – dedicated to family fun on the water.See the Cruising Yachts display.
JEANNEAU NC11Contemporary elegance is complemented by total transparency and seamless space. The modular internal features are restrained and comfortable: cabins, huge bathroom, salon, storage, and more.

Make Mother Nature Happy.
Hydrocoat helps Mother Nature keep her air and water fresh and clean and that makes her very happy. Solvent-based antifoulings contain a higher level of VOC’s, which makes Mother Nature very unhappy. Hydrocoat has fewer VOC’s, no foul smell and clean-up is simple with soap and water. Yet with all this green going for it, Hydrocoat is a very effective antifouling and is as good as the best solvent-based bottom paints. So stop using old technology. Make Mother
happy, use fresh, clean Hydrocoat and maybe it won’t rain on weekends this season.
Switch to Hydrocoat Antifouling.

THE FIGURE 8 VOYAGE – THE CHALLENGEHosted by Randall ReevesIn the fall of 2017, lone sailor, Randall Reeves, will depart San Francisco for a first-ever circumnavigation of both the American and Antarctic continents in one season. The route will pass through all the world’s oceans, approach both poles, and round Cape Horn twice.
The Figure 8 expedition vessel is a 45-foot, flush-deck aluminum sloop. Built in 1989 for German adventurer Clark Stede, she was the first yacht to circumnavigate the Americas in 1993. In 2002 and skippered by Tony Gooch, she was the first yacht to circumnavigate the globe non-stop via the Southern Ocean from a starting point in North America. Randall’s Figure 8 combines these two routes into one epic voyage.
See the vessel, climb aboard, and meet Randall at the in-water display or at his seminars.

Understanding and Troubleshooting Boat Electrical SystemsNigel Calder
Location: Craneway Pavilion Seminar Center Date: Friday, April 7Time: 9:00 a.m.–5:00 p.m. (Arrive at 8:45) Cost: $139/person; $249/couple
The number one source of problems on boats large enough to have an electrical system, both power and sail, lies in these electrical systems. Tech guru Nigel Calder, author of the best-selling Boatowner’s Mechanical and Electrical Manual (now in its 4th edition, with over 300,000 copies sold) takes participants through the core design and installation requirements necessary to head off electrical systems problems, and then delves into step-by-step troubleshooting techniques, including using a multimeter, that will rapidly identify most problems shouldthey arise. Not only will you leave class with a far better understanding of your electrical systems and knowing how to fix common problems, but you will also likely save the price of admission by not having to make service calls or swap out perfectly good parts in search of solutions.No previous experience is required.

The “FUN Race to Hawaii” runs every even year from San Francisco to Hawaii. Started in 1980, the race has been enjoyed by thousands of racers sailing well over a million miles in total. The 2018 Pacific Cup will start the week of July 9, 2018, and invites well-prepared boats to race to the warm, welcoming shores of Kaneohe Bay, Oahu.
Unique amongst the major distance ocean races, in the run up to the start, participants attend a series of five seminars called the Pacific Offshore Academy (POA). Seminar topics include how to configure and optimize your boat for the race to Hawaii, weather forecasting and navigation, crew selection and training, medical emergency training, provisioning, and a host of other topics designed to prepare the racers for their trip to Hawaii. Each seminar includes a lineup of top ocean sailing experts, from seasoned offshore professionals to electronics and navigation gurus, and veteran amateur racers who can make the material accessible to first timers.
The seminar series is designed for skippers and crew of boats either registered for Pac Cup 2018 or seriously considering entry. The Pacific Cup is excited to hold the first seminar of its POA series in the run up to Pac Cup 2018 at the Pacific Sail & Power Boat Show. The seminar will end at 4:00 p.m., giving participants a chance to also attend the boat show and enjoy the hospitality of hosted parties that night.

Marine Diesel Engines: Maintenance and TroubleshootingNigel Calder
Location: Craneway Pavilion Seminar Center Date: Sunday, April 9Time: 9:00 a.m.–5:00 p.m. (Arrive at 8:45) Cost: $139/person, $249/couple
The diesel engine is a critically important piece of safety equipment aboard any cruising boat. Tech guru Nigel Calder, au-thor of the best-selling Marine Diesel Engines (now in its 3rd edition, and used as a text book in numerous diesel classes), brings his unique brand of humor to a seminar for boatowners, both power and sail, that want to get the most out of their time on the water. Distinguishing between contemporary and older diesels, Calder takes a careful look at fuel, oil, cooling, airflow and powertrain systems, describing in detail all normal maintenance procedures together with basic troubleshoot-ing techniques for common diesel engine problems – defining what the untrained boatowner can reasonably be expected to do and what should not be attempted. You will come away from this seminar with an enhanced understanding of your engine and the confidence to carry out routine maintenance, which alone will save you the price of admission.
No previous experience is required.

Randall ReevesRandall grew up reading about and dreaming of the sea. He learned to sail on the rivers of central California and interviewed world-famous solo sailor, Bernard Moitessier, for his college radio station, an event that changed his life. Randall’s blue-water sailing began in 2006 when he crewed on a 40-foot boat for a 26-day, 3,000 mile passage from Hawaii to British Columbia where “everything went gloriously wrong.” He was hooked. In 2010, Randall departed San Francisco for a two-year, 12,000-mile solo loop of the Pacific in a 30-foot sailboat. Randall crewed the Northwest Passage in 2014, a grueling 65 days over an ice-strewn 5,000-mile course aboard one of only seven boats to complete the Arctic run that year. Randall’s preparations in 2016 have included long pas-sages aboard his new Figure 8 boat from Kodiak, Alaska to Hawaii and back to his home in San Francisco, a total of 7,000 miles. Randall is a licensed master of vessels to 50 gross tons.

Prior to their adventure together, Garth sailed around the globe with his family and managed to survive a shipwreck, as well as threats from storms, pirates, gun boats, mines and thieves, a broken rig, scurvy and starva-tion. Garth learned how to McGyver his way around the world. Come learn from the lessons of those who have gone before.
