Every morning at 8AM, we tuned the VHF to channel 22 to listen in on the local cruisers net. Each Yachtista logged on with boat name and marina location and discussed the days events and addressed stated needs. Then we would switch to channel 21 for the best weather reporting I have ever heard. I don’t know the gentlemen that does the reporting but he gives the current and forecasted conditions from the Northwest all the way down to the tip of Baja. We met Spike Web of Spycamair at the boat and made arrangements for Spike to give us some “Local Waters” boat handling training starting at 8AM on the 5th. We spent the rest of the day just taking it easy. We met Max and Ginger who bought their Mainship 34 Pilot down to join the 90 day Yacht club and spent some time with them, Don Ross/Heritage Yachts and Bob and Debbie Crowe. Don sponsored a Mainship get together lunch at the hotel for the three sets of boat owners and we all got the chance to know each other better.
