Great First Day

After a long day of driving yesterday, Kay and I had a great first day cruise.  We did leave with the tide against us, buy we still made it to Sausalito in about 5 hours.  Once we got into San Pueblo bay, the boat seem to take off at 16mph at 2000rpms.  Richardson bay is a very busy place.  Took on some fuel and got a tie up for the night.  A lot of you have been following our spot.  We will be leaving for the big water tomorrow mid morning and hope to arrive in Crescent City 28-29 hours later where we will take on fuel and weather permitting go to Newport, OR.  From there it is only 100 miles to the Columbia River.  Only issue today is a plugged fwd toilet that I can't unplug, so it will have to wait til I get home.
