Time for a cookout on Sucia Island!

Sailing skills are important, but so are vessel maintenance skills. Even our sails require some tender loving care now and then.
Early mornings on deck are often very peaceful.
Sea kayaking 50 miles in 5 days isn't an activity for the faint of heart. But having good buddies on the trip and the sights make it all worth the effort.
Sometimes learning sailing principles is easier in a smaller boat.
