Today's forecast was for 10 ~ 15 kts. So I went out and never saw 5 kts. These snaps were from off of Venice Beach. No problem, at least I left the slip. Sorry for the poor quality. Best regards, Big Joe.

MDR sailing day

It was an absolutely perfect day today, wasn't it? Agreed that just a little more breeze would have been nice. Great pics.

You know they kind of do look like little whales. The pod I saw was maybe 6 or 7 all told. I haven't overnighted at Paradise Cove but I wouldn't mind doing so this summer. Let me know if you and Novelman decide to do it as I would like to tag along. PS. I hope your wife is doing better and is comfortable. Big Joe.

We hung a line

off the stern, but didn,t catch anything, went back out after dropping off the brother and his kid to try and catch some lobster off the end of the breakwater, didn't catch anything but the sunset. SWMBO wants to go out again this Saturday night, she thinks the lobsters are paying me off, I tried to tell her that I am really that bad a fisherman ;D Thanks for the number Frank. Tim

This is the last week for the lobster season.

I was thinking about going out this weekend depending on weather. If you'd like to join me we can throw out the hoops. Just let me know. I doubt that my SWMBO is willing to go but you are welcome to bring yours. As it stands right now Saturday would be best, Sunday looks like rain. Frank

Welcome to the hood.

The entrance to the parking lot and ramps is second driveway on Fiji Way off Admiralty. Parking for a car is $5/day. Don't go to Chase Park they charge by the minute there. See you Saturday afternoon. Don't forget the melted butter. Frank

Justlooked out and saw a bird flying backwards

I think Charley Cobra sent us his wind after all, wasn't that nice of him. We will have to return the favor someday. ;D Tim

I was wondering where it went.

We got light stuff today instead of the forecast 15-25. It was so light I just messed around on the boat cleaning and polishing.
