Libations Too:
For those interested in an armchair cruise on a 323, I have posted the log for the southbound portion of my month-long cruise from San Francisco to the Channel Islands. I will post the northbound log sometime over the next month or two.

Let me know if you have questions or see any glaring mistakes, typos, dead links, etc.
Thanks,
Richard

PS The link above is the same URL as that used by our webmaster on the "Cruising" button on the 323 home page....so no changes by our webmaster are needed to include this cruise in the reading list.

Tremendous, Richard.  I hope to do the same trip one day; it really brought it all to life.  Nice job.

Sweet Pea:
Wow...what a great write up on a great trip! Your boat looks beautiful too. Thanks for the story.

Libations Too:
Thanks Selene and Sweet Pea...it was a fun trip to be sure. The run north was rather tedious and included several days waiting for good weather and a few hours of rather unpleasant, wet, and frightening conditions. I think it could fairly be described as "days of boredom punctuated by a few hours of near panic". The panic was self-induced and not associated with the 323...I find that I always learn something from these long trips. The important question is whether I was learning something new or simply relearning something that I had forgotten...in the case of the few hours of panic it was mostly relearning. I'll try to describe more fully as I write up my log for the northbound trip.

It would be great to read of other 323 cruises here. I always enjoy reading about other peoples adventures and am glad to hear that my log proved enjoyable for you.

Frayed Knot:
Great, Great, Great, I am envious what a wonderful trip it must have been.  Thanks for all the pictures and information.
