Hard to believe we are still motoring. 1100 miles down the coast and not one day with wind to sail. Left Eureka, CA monday 9-17-08. Thirty hours later arrived Bodega Bay. It was then Dick decided no matter how long it took...we would get an auto pilot. We took time to catch up on sleep. Met up with some fellow boaters that we met in New Port,OR. Caught up on where we've been and our next planned destinations. Got our auto pilot installed on Tuesday and left on Wednesday for 20 hour trip to Santa Cruz, CA. Got in about 0400 and just stayed at the fuel dock. (Still motoring) Had breakfast at a cafe called El Palomar. It was excellent! Right on the beach. Met up with s/v Bamboo and we proceded to San Simeon to anchor for the night. Once again...got beat up by following and beating seas. When is the fun going to begin? lol San Simeon the next morning was beautiful. Couldn't see a thing but the castle and marker bouys when we arrived at 0100. Left sunday for four hour trip to Morro Bay, CA. .
Staying at Morro Bay Yacht Club for next couple of days. Many restaurants, shopping and shuttles to get to grocery store, post office etc. MBYC members are so nice and helpful. Bodega Bay offered nothing and the same with San Simeon Bay, so it is really nice to have some ammenities.
