  9:45 a.m. - All boats gather off America's Cup Harbor between Harbor Island and Shelter Island.
  10:00 a.m. - Parade past southwest corner of Shelter Island past the San Diego fireboat.
  11:00 a.m. - America's Cup starting gun salutes Baja Ha-Ha 18.

• What: Bring your boat, fly some flags, sound a horn and help the San Diego Port Tenants Association and Sportfishing Association of Southern California give Baja Ha-Ha XVIII sailors a royal send-off for their cruise to Mexico.

This is an opportunity to liven up a Monday morning, get other sailors inspired for destinations beyond the horizon and bring some attention to the sailing lifestyle on San Diego Bay. If you can’t get your boat out, drive out to the west end of Shelter Island with your air horn, bagpipes, Sousaphone, glockenspiel or vuvuzela."
