Well, we've been having fun with our new goPro, but google Blogger doesn't like the format, or something. SO- here's our work around; we will post to YouTube, then publish the links. Any advice on how to upload to blogger is welcome :) Hope you enjoy.

Monday Nov. 4th.
We're in Morrow Bay still. The weather is starting to let up tomorrow, but still 10-20 knots of wind and 8 foot seas going around Point Conception. We may hang out here until Wednesday, but we will be anchoring out tonight. $25/day for the Yacht Club docks is starting to eat into our kitty to fast.
For being so windy offshore this harbor is quite mellow, except for the strong currents.
Yesterday I spend trying to install the depth sounder. Everything worked except the method I used to attach it to the bottom of the boat (silicon instead of apoxy). It works if I hang the transponder over the side and into the water, which is how we are going to have to use it until I get the correct material in San Diego.

October 28
Due to the unpredictable temperament of the weather gods we spent some time exploring Santa Cruz. Beautiful beaches and the boardwalk, even closed, was pretty awesome. Roller coasters and ferris wheel towering over the beach. And a special bonus was dinner and football ( yeah Hawks 7-1) with our friends Frank & Amber and their two amazing, intelligent, adorable daughters. We really enjoyed ourselves despite the foul smelling marina and uncooperative yacht club.
So now its a little after 10 am and we are trying to leave but the engine is being temperamental .....to be continued
October 26-27 San Francisco to Santa Cruz
We passed under the Golden Gate bridge at 12:38 pm Oct 26. It started out with fair winds and sunny skies but around 4 pm we hit heavy fog and seasickness hit Dominga. James manned the helm, hand steering about 17 hours. We arrived at Santa Cruz Harbor at 9:40 am Oct 27th and the rest of that day is a blur :) With an unfavorable weather report we decided to stay 2 nights.
