Well, after months of planning, it is time to go. Seas are 1 to 3 with 10 - 15 knots of wind DIRECTLY on the nose. I have about 200 miles to make to weather.

I'll be gone 3 weeks so V.C. business should go to Don or one of the other officers.

The boat is not sitting below the pinstripe, but the waterline is no where to be seen.

My plan is to leave work early, buy the fresh food and ice, pack clothes, have Spike and the kids drop me off at the dock, and leave about 2 to 3 AM for a 55 mile beat up to Dana Point.

1: Keep the boat in the water.
2: Keep the water out of the boat.
3: Stay in the boat.

Go answer the call......
