Lost the winch handle
Sunday, May 11th, 2003Today Cathy met me at the dock at noon and we went for a short sail over to Southampton Shoal and back. It was windy without being insanely windy, so we made good time and had some extra time to practice various sailing manuevers in the marina basin. We tried to rescue my floating winch handle that fell overboard, but it drifted under a dock after we made several unsuccessful attempts to fish it out of the water. Cathy insisted on buying me a new one, even though I told her it wasn’t a big deal.

Boat nerds!
Monday, May 5th, 2003Sunday I got up and did some cleaning. Stevan came by at 11:30am and we headed over to San Rafael to meet up with Captain Ellen, Joe, Joy and Roberta. Even though there were some morning rain showers, we all decided to go ahead and sail anyway. The wind was solid, rain stayed away, and we quickly made it over to Ayala Cove at Angel Island, with yours truly at the helm. AI is, as some of you know, one of my favorite places.
While the gang checked out the island, Ellen and I dug down into the bilge and replaced some of her rusted-out hose clamps. We’re such boat nerds.
