Happy New Year! Hope all your sailing wishes and cruising dreams come true. We spent New Year's Eve at Deni's house in Manhattan Beach. It was really nice. Julie made pizza and we watched "Blood Diamond" on cable.
It seems that Julie and I have missed a lot of pop culture in the last three years. Who the heck is Tia Tequila and why does she have her own TV show?
We fell asleep before midnight but rang the New Year with a nice long walk to the Hermosa pier this morning.
The video above is us sailing in the South Atlantic between Cape Town, South Africa and St Helena Island. This was some of my favorite sailing as we flew our big asymetrical spinnaker in 15-25 knots of breeze continuously for several days until a heavy squall line forced us to take it down one night. Hope you enjoy!
