    Pretty impressive going under the bridge, hope the knee and grandchild are doing well and Alcatraz looks just like it did in the film, another place I would like to visit.

    Hola amigos! I met you two on a shuttle from San Jose Del Cabo to La Paz several years ago. You told me about your channel and I've been watching. You may recall I keep my Ericson 35 "Sail a Vie" sail boat in La Paz although right now she is in Puerto Penasco at the top of the Sea of Cortez for hurricane season. Funny that you ended up in my old home Port of Redwood City. I kept Sail a Vie there for the first 28 years. I'm in the Bay aArea for the summer and then I'll be sailing back to La Paz in October. I hope we run into each other one of these days. In the mean time no wind and flat seas to you!

      Good to hear from you. In real time SeaVentures in Ensenada where we arrived about a week ago. Sea Venture Will be here until the first part of December when will head on south to the Sea of Cortez for the cruising season. Hopefully we’ll have a chance to connect up on the water. Jim

      Thank you! We had a great cruise to Ensenada. Thanks for all your help and advice. The folks at Marina Coral have been great. Jim

    I've made this trip dozens of times, but never with any ability to video it. Thank you!

    • @stinker43
      @stinker43 Před 2 lety +1

      What made you go south to RW City? Most folks head to Richardson Bay or Alameda when they first enter SF Bay?

    • @CruisingSeaVenture
      @CruisingSeaVenture  Před 2 lety +1

      Redwood City was a newer marina that had space for us. We need a 60' slip and most of the marinas up in the city had only smaller slips. Thanks, Jim

    At some point, the kittys might figure out that the floor, on the aft deck will be the smoothest ride. 😂😂😂 they're totally silly. Love em!!😊

    Always a thrill to come in under the Golden Gate Bridge. I've been out in the Potato Patch during a wind-against-tide situation and it was not fun. Good planning to time your entry when you did.

  • @basementracer7622
    @basementracer7622 Před 2 lety +1

    Wow how fantastic. I bet that big old bridge maybe bought a tear to your eye? Love watching your content. Very cool, pleased your knee is working again and the new baby will keep you busy I am sure. Safe travels. Thanks for posting vids.

    Awesome video and welcome to SF Bay. Are you heading back north with a stop in Humboldt Bay?

    Wow this is an old video..I go under the golden gate all the time...I know the new construction in the city and landmarks that are not in this video

      Hi, We were slow getting the editing done, but this trip under the bridge was the first week of September 2021. Thanks for watching, Jim

      @CruisingSeaVenture  Před 2 lety

      Thanks for the tip. Everyone we called right in the Bay had no availability for a 60' slip. But you never know next time! Thanks, Jim

    Are you stopping in Morro Bay? We’d love to host you.

    • @CruisingSeaVenture
      @CruisingSeaVenture  Před 2 lety

      Martin, Thanks. We are a little slow on the editing and getting the videos posted. We are working on getting current! In real time we are in Ensenada, Mexico, where we are waiting out hurricane season. We will continue our journey south in December. Thanks, Jim

  • @kevbjork1
    @kevbjork1 Před 2 lety +1

    Congrats on the addition to the family and glad you got your knee fixed up. I was just wondering, do you ever run on one engine to conserve fuel? Love your boat!

    • @FishingLuhrs
      @FishingLuhrs Před 2 lety

      Jim answered this in a Tech talk many episodes or more. Short answer, no. They already do really well on fuel, , the rudders off to one side and the boat slightly crabbing due to asymetrical thrust causes drag and the autopilot would have to work harder.

  • @ccswede
    @ccswede Před 2 lety +1

    Will you get Starlink for internet access on your boat?
    You came in near the airport. Did you see planes landing?

    • @CruisingSeaVenture
      @CruisingSeaVenture  Před 2 lety

      Good question on Starlink. I think a lot of boaters are going that direction. We need to do some more research and figure out if it's a good fit for us. Yes, we saw lots of planes landing. Thanks for watching, Jim

  • @bcgayguy
    @bcgayguy Před 2 lety +1

    How much fuel did that take from vancouver bc to San Fran

    • @CruisingSeaVenture
      @CruisingSeaVenture  Před 2 lety +2

      Thanks for watching. 382 Gallons to travel the 849 miles from Everett to San Francisco. The 382 gallons represents 17% of our fuel on board. Jim
