Crossing the Sea and a special delivery


Pretty uneventful trip across the sea. We started out by leaving the marina the night before and anchoring out at Deer Island, big mistake, uncomfortable rolly anchorage, but the worst was the band music that lasted until about 4 in the morning. UG, not a good start for an overnight passage.

Up bright and early and headed out, our friends on Moontide, Bill and Judy, were making the crossing at the same time as us. Bill bragged that Judy had just made some cranberry apple cobbler and shortly thereafter Moontide, a 47ft catamaran pulled alongside us and Judy tossed a care package over to us. YUMMY! Pretty quickly Moontide pulled ahead of us and as we headed more Northerly, we lost contact with them. Will probably see them in Escondido up the line.

Judy coming up close and person for a delivery of cobbler!
