I really enjoy the beginning of a voyage and this was no exception to that. The bridge doors were open the crew busy tidying away lines and fenders and the boat and crew settling into the rhythm of a sea voyage. It is always helpful when the weather is bright and sunny and southern California had not let us down. I wrote in the log, the time that we passed the last marker buoy of the channel and set the course and speed, sipped my coffee and felt relaxed and calm, standing on the bridge wing and taking in the warmth of the morning sun and feeling the boat give in to the first swell of the Pacific ocean.
We will be at sea for 10 days and nights, 3000 miles ahead us.
