...I was told we're going sailing this Saturday!

It may not sound like that big a deal, but Saturday is pretty much the first time I'll be home in about 14 days, and only for one at that, as I fly out again first thing Sunday. Work is ludicrous right now, but then again, I'd say life is good. Can't wait to get home Friday night!

Whoo Whoo!! Congratulations Ed!!
I know the feeling about traveling and having some sailing time. You picked a great weekend to come back. It's been kinda snotty here in SD the past couple weekends.
See you out there this weekend

Ill be the one with the spiffy new Genny

I'll probably have the delirious smile on my face!

Supposed to be a great weekend here. Will be out on the bay on Saturday and I head out of the country on Monday AM. With all the 34 owners here in San Diego we should have our own Rendevous.

OK, you guys are really making me jealous! I miss my boat.

A San Diego "fleet" rendezvous is a great idea-Summer's close!

Ralph Masters · May 01, 2012, 08:21:13 AM

Where and when is all we need Ed. I'm in Pier 32 in National City and so is another fine sailor. We can be up to north bay in an hour if need be.

With my biz travel, I'm probably looking to late June or July. Maybe we can meet up in Glorietta Bay or La Playa? We'll have to work something out....I hope to have some more time to focus on life in May.

Sorry Guys : I'm leaving the dock on Thursday for 6 weeks on the Chesapeake!!
It's the 25th season I've put the boat in the water!! Original hull, boom and mast - otherwise most all other items have been replaced.

Have a great week end sail. Plan to be back in home port on or about mid June!!

Envious. I think I have dreamed of sailing the Chesapeake since I read Michener's book when I was a kid. Visions of skipjacks dragging for oysters.

Ron,
You must be retired. Some of us are still doing the 7:30 - 4:00 gig M - F . Have a great time out there and be safe.
As a side note, this past week end I just put in the new Force 10 two burner propane stove. (Part of the reason I'm still doing that 7:30 - 4:00 thing, still have toys to buy.) Replaced the old pressure alchol stove.
