Departing San Francisco for Points South

After family visits, dental care, boat maintenance and auto helm failure we have finally left San Francisco. We had about a six hour run with minimal swell and minimal wind all the way to Pillar Point, Half Moon Bay. Tonight we are at the dock enjoying our quiet time with the furry crew. The marina was a stop over for us during our sailing instruction on coastal cruising. It was fun walking about this afternoon, seeing things we had missed the first time here and exploring new places. The dock is active with tuna fishermen and charter boats. A small charter boat pulled into the slip next door. The picture we took of their catch is much more impressive than words. When we get wifi we will post the photo. Tomorrow we plan to leave early for Monterey. The sea conditions are settled and it will probably be a motor experience. We are planning for about 66nm and 11 to 12 hours passage.

No, we did not catch these, but the charter
boat that pulled in next to us did.
Unbelievable!!!!!
