Sailing Feb 4 – Escorting the Queen Mary 2 Into S.F. Bay

Here is the Google Earth file showing our excursion around the bay,
including a jaunt out into the Pacific to welcome the Queen Mary 2.
Unfortunately, my camera malfunctioned, so images here will have to
wait.

We left Sausalito around 11:00AM, and motored or sailed (under genoa
only because the main is still at the loft), around Angel Island, out
the Gate past Pt. Bonita and a bit north, then turned and chased the
Queen Mary back into the bay. Along the way we had several pods of
dolphins visit, which was a treat. The weather was pleasant, seas
mostly calm, currents moderate. There were many boats on the bay and
out in the channel – easily as many as during fleet week or previous
tall ships events. We were back in the slip around 5:00PM.

A great day on the water!
