  • 3 Months and Counting!

    90 days to go, lots to get ready before we finally cast off.

  • Arrival at Santa Barbara Island……

    Hi guys, we left at around 11:15 this morning, finally got off the dock.
    Cindy saw a shark while Scott was asleep off watch and Scott saw a Humpback Whale while Cindy was asleep off watch.

    We are here with one other sailboat and two small power boats. Arrived at 5 pm. Cindy is cooking dinner, the wine is cold, its gray and cool, but calm and nice. I\’m sure we will go for a hike tomorrow sometime. The sea lions are everywhere, this place really does sound like a Dog Kennel…….:)

    Drop us a note, we will check the mail a few times/day.
    Love and Hugs,
    Scott and Cindy

    Hello to all our friends checking in with us.
    We are currently in Catalina Island enjoying a cool but relaxing day here at Big Geiger Cove. (Home of the Blue Water Cruising Club). Decided not to dive this weekend, too cold looking a day
    and the water is still 59 degrees!……..
    Regards,
