figured i would at least put sandra to work. she makes a great skipper.

the water started out lumpy with an easy 10 knots of wind.

just past point pinos, the seas layed down really nicely, then got ugly again at point sur.

the return trip was pretty rough. to make matters worse, i burned up a wheel bearing ion the trailer driving home. i probably ruined the axle and brakes. i'm off to central valley marine in the morning.
