Will the whales have their revenge??

One morning in July 2006 (after the Pacific Cup race to Hawaii), Debbie, Chris, Pat and I left the island of Kauai onboard Morpheus bound for San Francisco 2,000 nautical miles away.

Later that day, just before Sunset, we ran smack into a whale that must have been sleeping near the surface. We were lucky, there was no damage (to the boat) and we didn't stick around long to figure out just how hurt and angry that whale was.

Two evenings later, we found ourselves surrounded by an amazing number of Pilot Whales. Honestly, the pod that we sailed through had to have had at least 100 whales in it. They seemed to find us very interesting and we were all afraid that perhaps they had come to even the score!!

Check out this video, it's amazing!!

Into the lair of the Sun Devil

Jim:
 
So I'm watching the game and thinking that the Cal 1st Team will be needing a beer by the end of the second quarter.  But no.  ASU just tied Cal 14-14.

Race 4

As you can see from this picture, our remarkable run of over achievement has come to an end!

30 degree shift to the right on first leg and we were hard left.

StFYC on the other hand was hard right. Nice going boys! Victory #1!!!

Day 2

Morning comes early when sailing with team Real Club Nautica Barcelona. I have yet to see a party where they are not the last team standing!! If there were a trophy for both on and off the water performance combined, we would be certain to win.

Forecast for today is 15 to 20 and cold. Looks like a long day to make up for yesterday. Expecting four races.
