Today, Nick and I had two greenhorn crewmembers - Julio and Duke. For being new to sailing, they both enjoyed themselves. We left Channel Islands Harbor at 1000am and headed Northwest towards Ventura. It was overcast most of the day but with great visibility. When we reached Ventura, the sun came out for about an hour and then hid behind the clouds. While underway, chef Nick roasted some sausages on the hibachi grill. They were excellent as always. The most wind we saw was about 13 Knots which took us a max of 7 knots. When we returned to the slip, we went for Sushi at the local sushi spot within walking distance. All in all, it was a great day!
