Satchel came to Half Moon Bay for the delivery trip - the original plan was to do it from Monterey but Half Moon Bay it was going to be.
First in the harbor there was a ton of sea lion. Elise was docked in the commercial fishing area and these sea lions kept me awake the entire friggin' night. At some point I went up on deck and asked them if they never slept. Anyway in the morning fun sight because it was sunny - the sea lions end up in a circle and put their fin up as a way to warm up. Thermoregulation system.
Super weird!
This is what my night sounded like - departing from the slip under sail was quite a sailing achievement and we had to hoist the jib to make it possible as our first attempt with the main only yielded a no result. I had docked under sail too - and the trickiest part of these harbors is that you can't read the numbers of the slips when boats are in them so I first turned into the wrong slip...
And Elise is getting ready to go.
Upon arrival we dried up all the sails.
