Also joining us are Corey Wurzner and Bernice Hanczak, friends from high school. Corey and Bernice are long time sailors and proud owners of a new (to them) Pearson 32 "Blue Express" located in Moss Landing.

Flights are booked to San Diego for October and crew training cruises taking place.... pretty fun stuff.

Introducing the Baha Haha Crew
Allan

Bro Phil and wife Josie will be joining Rina and I on the Haha this year. Phil has sailed casually, crewing on friends boats and spent plenty of time on Follow You Follow Me. Quite impressively, Josie took basic keelboat at Tradewinds in March and passed with flying colors! She knows knots and everything!

I did it!

Big step.... let work know that Rina and I are going sailing to Mexico for a year. CEO was very amenable, giving me a leave of absence for the period. Even discussed the possibility of doing small projects for the company... that would be cool, and the holy grail of the cruising life.... work via the satellite phone and wifi while living on the boat....

Now that the cats out of the bag, Rina and i will discuss itineraries and other stuff that we couldnt before...

I want to be more like this..... RELAXED and on the boat.... and less like.....

4th of July Anchorage
Rina
07/05/2008, Angel Island, Ayala Cove

Here's a peek of our boat through the trees from the top of the trail on Angel Island above Ayala Cove...Beautiful! It was one of the places on the San Francisco Bay over the weekend, July 3rd - 5th, that didn't get fogged in. Great walks, picnicked on the trail from one of the old forts...Some family joined us from Volcano and Eureka for the weekend. Much fun was had. Great Sail on the 5th over to Pier 40 and all the way down to south bay, Redwood City.

Here's Allan & daughter Alyssa breaking in our new toys! These inflatable kayaks that are incredibly packable in their own cases to store nicely on the boat. Very fun to use.

Weather forecasting made easy
Allan
06/23/2008, Half Moon Bay

One of the upgrades made to the boat recently was a killer Wifi extender. I can reach hotspots miles away to get weather updates, as doing here in our recent trip to Santa Cruz and Half Moon Bay. Something tells me I'll be spending alot of time in that seat.
