Sailin' Away

One of the benefits of living on the Point Loma peninsula is that you have the bay on one side and the beach on the other.  The beach is lots of fun (Ocean Beach is a quick trip over the hill -- I have walked there and back more times than I can count), but the bay is easygoing and carefree.  One of the best ways to spend a day on the bay is in a sailboat.  The San Diego Yacht Club is very nearby (nine blocks, to be exact).  The Harbor Island West Marina is less than three miles away by road, just across the bay.  There' s also Sun Harbor Marina, which is the first LEED certified marina in the world.  With all these options, it would be a crime not to get out on the water from time to time. 

The photo above right is of my son, welcoming us to a day out on Aquamarine II.  The photo on the left shows us just getting underway.  This short posting is meant to be a sample of what a beautiful day on the bay is like.  Enjoy!

It's a beautiful day in the neighborhood.
