Oh how cool! I'm thrilled for ya, I sailed to Catalina four times from Balboa in an islander 34' when I was a kid in the 70's, I'm 62 now wanna do it again by myself, we used to call it a flopper stopper, great sand dab (flounder) fishing a mile out and south of a Avalon

Just wanted to say my first sailboat from San Diego bought it in Vancouver 34 ft no radar nor no radar reflector single engine Yanmar when coming around West Van close to Bowen Island at around midnight the wind died down very dark and I went to the bow a freighter from Squamish was coming directly in front close call. AIS, Radar is important never without them now. Also crossed the wake from a container ship that was steaming out from Vancouver saw it on my radar from 5 mile setting. The wake though it was one third of a mile when created by the ship when I crossed it in my 34 ft wooden fishing boat created such a shake hit it at a 45 degree angle only about 2-3 ft high the power in that small wave was tremendous in my heavy wooden. Take care.

You got that mooring ball so easy! I had a catalina 25 and bringing it in to dinner key mooring field in miami was the stuff of nightmares. It was as packed as a walmart parking lot and missing the ball had you running to the stern and pulling off magic tricks so as not to hit another boat. I finally just started staying at the stern and grabbing the ball from there then walking it forward.

How do you know when the sail is at its proper tension on the wind & I noticed some sort of small medical device attached to your body! What is that medical device? Your channel is fun to watch since I live close & walk the harbor every day!

There are sail ties and tells and based on the direction of the wind you place your sails at a different point of sail! The harbor is a beautiful walk!

Good to see you out there sailing. One suggestion, I strongly recommend that you get the boat ready to sail before you leave the dock. Boom cover removed, halyards connected, and anchor ready to deploy. Engines die, things happen, and luck favors the prepared. Great video, thanks.

Christa, I am new to sailing and just bought a 27 ft Hunter 1981. Not a bad boat but not as nice as yours. I also am in DP Harbor. I noticed that you have a backup electric motor, an EPROPULSION 1.0. How does that work out for you? enough power to motor into the harbor with the usual late afternoon prevailing westerlies? Also, how long can you run the motor at whatever speed works for you? I am considering adding one to my sailboat for emergency use. 5 miles max before my LIFEPO4 100 amp/hour battery dies? Any thoughts would be appreciated. Al

Just curious - was the Hunter a purpose buy (meaning that you wanted a Hunter) or just a boat that matched the needs/budget at that time?

A bit of both! Its the best boat I could afford at the time for my needs! Definitely will upgrade when I can but for now I have no complaints.
