AT SEA
Posted: August 4, 2012 Filed under: Catalina Island, 2012 Leave a commentWe left the dock at 9:45 am and headed out onto a sunny and calm sea. The light wind out of the east died about 10 miles off shore, so the diesel is chugging away. Several pods of dolphins played in the wake, giving us a break. Right now, about mid channel, the sea is glassy with a 1-2 foot confused swell rocking the boat. The few clouds are burning off, the Island is in sight, and life is good.
CATALINA ISLAND, August 3, 2012
Posted: August 3, 2012 Filed under: Catalina Island, 2012 1 CommentWe are heading off in the morning to Big Geiger Cove on the West end of Catalina Island for a three day weekend. The plan is to leave the harbor about 10:00 am for the five hour crossing. Our friend Christian is going with me and Patty is joining us on Saturday via the cross-channel ferry.
Since the auto pilot drive unit gave up on the last trip, and is in for repairs, I will be happy to have the help steering the boat.
Here we go
