emerald bay

Anchor held very nicely and the harbor wasn't very busy since everyone was over at the Istmus Harbor for some wine and cheese festival. John the previous owner (from the sea scouts) came by and we had a great visit with him.... she liked her old friend, looking her up again. He could not believe and was very happy to see all the improvements. John had a piece of an apple pie with us. Last night (sunday) we had 3 other boat joining us and doing a nice job by anchoring so it was no problem and kind of event-less. I guarantee you it'll not be the same for the 4th of July. I think I am going to get a mooring so we can leave and not worry. Or perhaps go to Santa Barbara or the back side of Catalina, little harbor, oh how much I love that. Will see. I am looking into the whole swim step install and fabrication of the frame. Not in the budget right now but you never know...
