We’re staying as guest members at the Pacific Mariners Yacht Club in Marina del Rey for 3 or 4 days.  It’s a central LA location within walking distance to Venice Beach and a long bus ride to Disneyland.  This must be the tightest docking I’ve ever done–still not sure how I fit in here….

The sail from Oxnard was nice with a steady 20-25 NW wind.  We had dolphins swimming along side getting a boost from our bow wave.  We moved along at 8 knots with only the Genoa sail and got an extra 1knot boost from the California current most of the way.

We walked to Venice Beach where dad and Jacintha were flexing their muscles in front of Muscle beach.

And competing with the entertainers….

Getting ready to go back to the boat, we walked by a place on the boardwalk that had karma pricing (pay what you want) for haircuts, and we all got our hair cut.
