Went for a quick sail with John C. and Paul L. after John's birthday party. Sailed up the estuary to the APL cranes and back. We had pretty decent winds of up to 18 knots. Boat handled well. On the way up we saw Nanaimo on her way back to port. Later we passed her again as Pete and Doron were looking for a place to pump out the holding tank. Ah the wonderful things we need to do to take care of the boat.
It was nice sailing with John C. and Paul as they both could handle the helm and help out with the lines as needed. Hopefully next weekend Lynne and I can do an overnight on the boat.

About Us
- John Finston & Lynne Robertson
- I have been sailing the Bay Area with my wife Lynne for about 10 years. Our first boat was a Watkins 27, which we really enjoyed - a great boat for the bay. But then our friends, Pete and Bethany, bought a Nonsuch 30U, and we were smitten. We shortly thereafter bought Wildcat, and have been sailing her since January 2007. The question is - is she a coastal cruiser in addition to being a great bay cruiser? The answer to that question -- is for another day.
