La Cruz -
We're glad to be away from the bustle, noise and dirt of the city and back to a scenic anchorage. We'll hang out here while Loon, Icarian, Wyndeavor and some others get provisioned and underway, then we'll all pal around down the coast for awhile. We test-drove (sailed) a spinnaker yesterday in hopes of buying it, but it was a bit big for the boat and too much for Kellie and I to handle by ourselves - we had Mike (Wyndeavor), Brian (Icarian), Iain (Loon), Kellie and I and we were all busy doing something when we were flying it and it still got wet going up and coming down... So I'm still looking for a drifter, spinnaker (preferably asymetrical), gennaker or other downwind light air sail, hopefully with a dousing sock since we'll always be shorthanded. Luff length around 49'. If anyone has a lead on (an inexpensive, i.e. <<$500) one, give my folks a call at 360-427-4258 - they can get in touch with me via the SSB radio e-mail.
