    ~Isthmus this weekend ?

    Since we didn't get to go for Thanksgiving we're planning to go this weekend. Heading over Friday morning and coming back Sunday. Not sure which cove we'll head for but doubt it will be crowded :egrin: Anyone else ? -Sven

    Catalina this weekend

    We're planning to head back out there on Friday morning, once the fog lifts and the wind picks up a bit. We have more boat chores to do so we'll probably once again head for the Isthmus where we can work in a relative paradise. Anyone else ? -Sven

    No crossing this weekend :-(

    We'd hoped to cross over to Cherry Cove before the heavy rain tomorrow/Friday but our Perkins is still being serviced: New SS exhaust manifold, tach repair, audible temp and oil pressure alarm installation. Guess we'll do some in-slip work instead. -Sven

    Teachable moments on a weekend adventure

    I'm new to this board, so I may not be putting this in the right forum, but I thought I'd share. A little bit of back story - I and a few of my friends own an Ericson 27, 'Wino Country Safari' and sail it often around Seattle's Lake Union and occasionally around Puget Sound, up to the San...

    Two sailboats lost at West End this weekend

    I just heard from a man who lives aboard his boat on B dock at Cabrillo Marina that his two neighbors lost their boats at the West End on Sunday. Both boats were at Catalina Harbor for the weekend and left Sunday afternoon. One boat - a Fuji 32 I think he said - lost power and the woman...

    Catalina for the Weekend

    Peregrine Spirit and crew will be going to Catalina for the weekend. We plan to depart SD Thursday evening and will try to get into Two Harbors on Friday.

    The Isthmus or SBI for the long weekend ?

    Assuming the weather doesn't get really bad, we plan to head out somewhere on Friday and return back on Tuesday, taking one vacation day at each end of the 3-day weekend. We haven't yet decided where we're going, but it will probably either be the Isthmus or SBI, or both. Paul Spicer said...

    Two Harbors for the Weekend?

    It's looking awfully nice out there... but the possibility of a nasty Santa Ana lingers... just read the "hazardous weather" warning that it could blow hard this weekend, but I'm thinking - what if it doesn't? Could be a great weekend with warm temps and some nice hiking over there. What do you...

    Cat harbour or Isthmus Harbour this weekend ?

    We're hoping to cross from MDR to one of the two Catalina isthmus harbours this Saturday, 6-12. Since we'll be rushed we'll probably set out early on Saturday, under power until the prevailing winds appear. We'll be heading back on Sunday ... unavoidable. Any other Ericsons on this board...

    Another beautiful E23 weekend :-)

    We haul out in March to get antifouling bottom coats applied and the through-hulls replaced. Until then we have a high-drag bottom as the diver hasn't been by to wipe off the growth in 6 weeks. Still ... an absolutely beautiful day at up to hull speed under sunny skies with 10 to 15 mph (5-8...
