My boat was magnificent on this trip. We had some pretty strong winds and seas at the start, and she took 'em in stride. I have nothing but love for this boat. I do have to make some adjustments - mainly in storage space and such, but also some rigging and I need to re-cut my sail to get it to hang better. Each time I sail, I get better at it.

I am uncertain about next year. The rest of the group was going to continue on sailing to different islands this year, and I would like to do something like that. I might sail out of Anacortes and do some gunkholing up to Sucia to meet the Coots for the wine and cheese feed.

or maybe something else. I don't know. But I do know I wil keep going back to the San Juans.
