We arrived Saturday afternoon at about 3:30 right in the middle of the weekend races. I was at the helm having to weave through the swarm of very fast hobicats. It must have looked like a caterpillar moving through an ant trail. Like the caterpillar, I did my best to avoid them, but they are thrill seekers so it seemed as if they were attacking us. But we made it through and were soon docked safely. First order of the day, as always, were showers and the we went to find the Santa Cruz Yacht Club. Reciprocal privileges were respected and we relaxed luxuriously on their lovely deck overlooking the marina with an ice cold beer. Ahh, this is the life.

The Food Saver vacuum sealer is a really useful device. The aluminum packs contain a 2 person serving. They just need to be defrosted and thrown in the oven - no prep work required. We could bake all 3 at once, or the crew that is sleeping can bake theirs when they wake up.
