Two weeks after departing LA, we finally made it back to Oakland! Spent way longer in Santa Barbara & Morro Bay than originally planned, but you’ll hear no complaints about that. And our good friend, Dino, met us in Santa Cruz to join us for the last leg of the voyage. Tied up to the dock in Jack London Square and immediately sought out our favorite ramen – Noka!
The hardest leg of the voyage is done! 19 hours of motoring, ugh. No wind during the day. Then jumped up to 30kts around 3am, with some nice big swells to boot. We knew it would get a little hairy out there, and it was uncomfortable for a bit, but I’m glad we did the trip. We were able to thread the needle through the worst of the weather, and the wind & current at our back got us there two hours early.
