Jim and Karen Hervieux had a great ASA 104 a couple of weeks ago ... some terrific wind, mostly clear skies and leaping whales. The one at the top cleared the water more than 20 times in 30 minutes.


Local Adventures and Adventurers -

We've been out playing on our new Jeanneau. It's twice as much boat as Wiley - 12 tons as compared to 6 tons. We're still getting used to the turning radius and acceleration characteristics. We missed the big blow on Wed. and had to settle with 15 kts. or so yesterday. We're looking forward to more challenging conditions as we head to Windy Lane, Santa Cruz and Santa Rosa 9-11 June

Those of you who sailed with me last year in Wiley can book Sancerre from now until August at last year's rates. Just give me a call, tell me your dates and we'll lock that part of the calendar for you.

We only have a couple of pics of her, but more will be coming.
