Presidio Yacht Club

History of the Presidio Yacht Club

The Presidio Yacht Club has a rich and distinguished history in the San Francisco Bay area. The Club's origins belong with the establishment of Fort Baker by the US Army in 1850. Originally named the Lime Point Military Reservation (after Lime Point on the north side of the Golden Gate), the Fort operated as a satellite station of Presidio of San Francisco. Its primary missions were mine laying and hosting strategic battery sites - one of which is still accessible by hiking. Following the War, the batteries and anti-submarine operations lost their tactical value but the marina remained. Servicemen began berthing their private boats in the then empty slips. And with such a large influx of military personnel and watercraft in one of the San Francisco Bay's most beautiful locations, it was only natural that the servicemen created a formal organization.

Thus Presidio Yacht Club was founded on May 11th, 1959. Initially, it was only open to military personnel and their dependents, but that restriction only lasted as long as the Army operations in Fort Baker. Following the end of the Cold War, the US Army closed Fort Baker in 1994 and consolidated the Fort's operations in Dublin, CA. Travis Air Force Base (located in Fairfield, CA) then assumed management of the marina and the Presidio Yacht Club continued to operate. The Presidio Yacht Club is over sixty years old.

Currently, Presidio Yacht Club is a community of boating enthusiasts and servicemen, including both American and foreign members. It continues its operations in the same boathouse it originally started in. Although its membership is open to the public, the Club retains its strong military heritage. It is closely associated with the Travis Marina, which is operated by the 60th Force Support Squadron at Travis Air Force Base. The Club continues its tradition of camaraderie by having all-volunteer work days every second Saturday of the month, followed by dinner. Active duty personnel enjoy dedicated support and discounted services.

Shakhty, Rostov Oblast, Russia

Shakhty is a city located in the Rostov Oblast in southwestern Russia. As of the most recent census in 2020, the population of the city was approximately 230,000 people, making it one of the largest cities in the region.

While Shakhty is generally a safe city, like any other city, it is not completely immune to crime. In recent years, the city has experienced an increase in crime, particularly in the areas of theft and burglary. According to the Rostov Oblast Department of Internal Affairs, the crime rate in Shakhty has increased by approximately 10% in the last year. However, it is worth noting that crime rates in Shakhty remain lower than in many other large cities in Russia.

Historically, Shakhty has been known for several high-profile crimes. One of the most notable incidents occurred in 1928 when a group of young Communists were accused of murdering a group of members of the Orthodox Church. The incident, known as the "Shakhty Trial," became a major political scandal in the Soviet Union and resulted in a wave of political purges.

While there are no areas of Shakhty that are considered completely unsafe, there are certain neighborhoods that are more prone to crime than others. The most dangerous areas of the city are generally located in the outskirts of the city, away from the main commercial areas. Visitors to Shakhty should exercise caution when traveling to these areas, particularly after dark.

As a general rule, it is advisable to avoid traveling alone after dark, particularly in poorly lit or isolated areas. Visitors should also be aware of their surroundings and should take basic precautions to protect their valuables, such as keeping wallets and purses close at hand.

In terms of specific safety advice, visitors to Shakhty should be aware that the city experiences extreme weather conditions in the winter months. Temperatures can drop well below freezing, and visitors should be prepared with warm clothing and appropriate footwear.

Visitors should also be aware of the local customs and habits of the people living in Shakhty. The city has a predominantly Russian population, and visitors should be respectful of local customs and traditions. It is also advisable to learn some basic Russian phrases before traveling to the city, as English is not widely spoken.

While Shakhty is generally a safe city, visitors should exercise caution and be aware of their surroundings, particularly after dark. By taking basic precautions and being respectful of local customs, visitors can enjoy all that this fascinating city has to offer.
