Our first open sea voyage! After our first year of owning and leaning how to sail, we set our eyes on Catalina. Other than some minor engine problems on our last leg of the voyage, everything went fantastic! Beautiful weather and stunning scenery
Anne and I spent the 4th on the boat in San Diego where the city honored our military with 4 barges of fireworks all around the bay. Definitely an annual event.
