Last weekend some friends came up and we went sailing out of Ventura harbor. Here is a little video. Hopefully Jimmy doesn’t come knocking on my door demanding royalties for his songs…
Weather was great and we had 12 to 15 knot winds so the sailing was exciting. It was Mike’s birthday weekend and we all had a blast. It was my friend Darren’s first time on my boat and he was pleasantly surprised at how enjoyable it was.
I got an email from a couple today about their new O’Day 22. Luke and Elizabeth just recently bought their O’Day and I was glad to hear they used this blog as a resource to make their decision. They send me some photos of their trip this last weekend to Fisherman’s Island on the boat and it looks like a ton of fun.
Luke and Elizabeth’s new O’Day ready for the adventure
All ready with life jackets and all
First mate on the lookout. “I think I see a fish!”
“I told you! It was a big one!”
“OK, maybe the binoculars made it look bigger…”
Forget fishing, here Luke is getting back into some serious sailing.
Don’t forget to check your course so you don’t get lost!
Here’s Elizabeth sailing Wing-On-Wing with the sun and wind on her back
What’s an island trip without pineapples!
Beautiful sunset photo aboard the O’Day at anchor.
“Alright Luke, enough of this ‘roughing it’ business. I need a real shower!”
Thanks again to Luke and Elizabeth for sharing these great photos. They made me feel like I was there!
