Commander #155 'Mephisto Cat'

[Rico]

The next Saturday I made it to Long beach - We had great 15-20kt winds in the afternoon. I though of sailing into the night make it all the way to Marina del Rey, but I did not want to subject my willing crew to this... I did not take any pictures that day but we finished up at a nice restaurant with a guest dock in Long Beach. We celebrated with a few drinks and they I went to sleep right at the guest dock... They were picked-up in Long beach...

1.- The next morning I set off at about 6:00am and motored past the Queen Mary and the spruce goose dome in Long Beach Harbor.

2.- Here I am rounding Point Fermin on the Palos Verdes Peninsula.

3.- Finally getting to Marina del Rey after the day turned into a great day for sailing. I was escorted into the harbor by an Alerion Express. They were curious as to what the new little boat in the neighborhood was...
