One Wabbit Won A Wylie Wabbit is a crazy little 24-ft sailboat. It only weighs 1,000 pounds and carries one crew member on a trapeze to keep the boat right side up. Each summer the class hosts the Wylie Wabbit Wiver Wun, starting off of the breakwater at Richmond Yacht Club, proceeding up the Sacramento River then the San Joaquin River and finishing at Delta Marine Yacht Harbor in Rio Vista. This year’s leader was Colin Moore’s Kwazy, powered by his new Pineapple Sails spinnaker. Big or small, heavy or light, up the river or across the ocean, race or cruise, Pineapple Sails has the expertise to design and build the sails you need. And every Pineapple Sail is built from start to finish right here in sunny Alameda!
