Short hop over the Aquatic Park Cove for a bit. Super cool being anchored right off downtown SF.

Each day we continue on our journey to full time cruising. Today was another glimpse of what we are moving towards as we worked, swam during lunch, baked beer bread in the solar oven, and watched the sunset and the full moon rise. A lovely Friday the 13th. đź’•

I left the boat midday @ 60% battery life and came back several hours later @ 99.7%. So it hit full at some point and then drained a tiny bit after the sun went down. Super happy! I finally got the charge controllers, wiring, etc for the solar panels finished last night and it’s all …

We made it to San Francisco Bay and are anchored in front of Sausalito! The first big passage for the family achieved! It’s kind of crazy to think: We were in Seattle, then Canada, then Port Angeles, we had crew, we rounded capes, we saw whales!!!, saw some pretty big seas (12ft waves), lots of …

Captain’s log. Graham on watch. We left Fort Bragg in the fog at 1:30 on our way to San Francisco. Currently 6-9 foot waves at 6-7 second period and still foggy. The occasional 12 comes through and is over my head standing on the deck, pretty awesome. Crew is sleeping/resting after crossing the bar, waves …
