Out of Oceanside 4/20/2013. Finally was able to get back on the water. Had a great sail. Perfect weather. Wind about 10 knots and speed around 5 knots. 3.8 knot average for the 3 hours I was out.
A little excitement about a quarter of a mile off shore, a grey whale surfaced to breath about 30 feet in front of me, heading towards me! I changed direction quickly and was glad we did not collide. It must have swam underneath me. It looked massive and I was in no doubt as to who would be in trouble if we collided. Enjoyed the sail. Took a few videos and posted them to you tube. The wind blew evenly so the sailing was nice. Constant wind and good speed.
Here is one of the videos from today
