    Isthmus for the 4th ?

    Sven, How was the trip up the coast? Did you have any problem finding a slip in Oceanside or Dana? Both harbors are nice places. Except for the last part of the trip, were you able to sail? Jim

    Mission Bay, Oceanside, Dana Point, Cabrillo

    Sven, I have only sailed into Oceanside once. My engine wasn't working, so we stopped in Oceanside for repairs. It was easy to sail in when I did it, but I have heard that it can get tricky at the entrance. Stay to the right, the left is Camp Pendleton. Should be fine with this weather...

    Dinghy Suggestions

    I have a great 10.2 achilles inflatable. It has an 8 hp Suzuki, but you could row and leave the motor home. It is an 1988, but has been inside most of its life, except when it has been on trips to Catalina, so it is in very good condition, no leaks. It has a solid wood transom, a wooden...
