Hey Camino,
We'll be grabbibg a slip at Angel Island. I've done the fore and aft thing on the mooring cans, but then you need a dinghy to get to shore. The dock saves a lot of effort. That said, I'll have a dinghy and outboard if necesary. If you get there before noon, slips will be available.
StF YC has two kinds of reciprocity. If your YC is far enough distant, you can get in the front door. If on the other hand, your YC is too close, then you have to bring your yacht. To do that, you have to make a reervation to confirm they have dock space.
How far is too close?
I knew you were gonna ask. The answer is "I don't know", but the magic number is on their web site. I know Oakland YC is too close. About a year ago, before I was an OYC member, They let me spend the night at their docks on the strength of my Pacific Cup YC membership. They are big Pacific Cup backers and usually have members in the race.
