It was quite foggy until around noon and then no wind. Finally I decided to get underway as Travis (a fishing boat down the pier) texted to say that there was wind out in the bay. So, in predicted winds of S- SSW 10-20, temperatures in the high 50's and cloudy, I got underway. It was a great sail on a beam reach out to Pools Island Shoal light and I returned on a broad reach. It was a comfortably flat sail doing 6.5 knots with 17-19 knots of wind. Travis was still out so he motored around me taking pictures as I was taking pictures of him - which later we shared. It was quite windy while docking but all went well for my final night docking of the season.
