Sailing Sarita: San Carlos
http://sailingsarita.blogspot.com/2015/07/san-carlos.html
Sailing and living on the sea. Monday, July 6, 2015. Just hauled out of the water. San Carlos has a reputation of being one of the safest places to be against hurricanes but it’s certainly not immune to strong winds and tropical storms so we will be watching the weather carefully when we are away and hoping that all will be well. We do plan in coming back for the height of the hurricane season being October. Sarita on the hard in Marina Seca San Carlos. Posted by Sailing Sarita.

The Adventures of Shatoosh and Pashmina: May 2014
http://shatooshandpashmina.blogspot.com/2014_05_01_archive.html
The Adventures of Shatoosh and Pashmina. Monday, May 19, 2014. Olympia Wooden Boat Show. I looked at some lovely and unique classic boats last week. Sunday, May 18, 2014. Foss Harbor Marina does not allow any boat washing with soaps, so I used vinegar and scrubbed like a wild woman making good headway on dirt, grim and green stuff. The docklines came home for washing and became crystal clean and like new. A busy but fun day. It is good to begin getting ready for some cruising. This is the first y...Agrou...

The Adventures of Shatoosh and Pashmina. Monday, June 23, 2014. Deborah and I walked to end of the harbor and ate at the Thai restaurant for dinner and discovered this sweet beach called Mussel Beach. 3 stone clams. It was delightful to get to know Deborah as we have just met at a conference in May. What a nice day meeting new people. Again I fell asleep at 9 pm.

Sailing Sarita: Santo Dominigo
http://sailingsarita.blogspot.com/2015/07/santo-dominigo.html
Sailing and living on the sea. Monday, July 6, 2015. Anchored at Isla Coyote. We sailed pretty much all the way to the anchorage and arrived at a deep twilight, dropping the hook in another picturesque empty anchorage with a smooth white and shell littered sandy beach. So hot my shoes melted. Was there another hurricane on the way? Over the next few days we visited a few other anchorages and settled on Playa Coyote as a place we would spend a few days and wait for our friends on Pesto and Coastal Drifter...

WhiskyJack, a 25' Island Drifter: Fresh Water Cooling & A Surprise
http://whiskyjack-dan.blogspot.com/2014/07/fresh-water-cooling-surprise.html
WhiskyJack, a 25' Island Drifter. Whiskyjack at anchor in Garrison Bay, San Juan Island. Wednesday, July 2, 2014. Fresh Water Cooling and A Surprise. I mounted the heat exhanger by manufacturing "extention nuts" from stainless steel hex stock that replace two of the nuts that hold the exhaust manifold onto the engine head. Socket head cap screws then secure the heat exchanger mounting clamps to the other end of the extension nuts. And when it was all done it looked like this! The real surprise that I enc...

Sailing Sarita: San Juanico
http://sailingsarita.blogspot.com/2015/07/san-juanico.html
Sailing and living on the sea. Sunday, July 5, 2015. We scouted out the anchorage and decided that it was not a place we wanted to stay for a few days as we had to anchor quite a way offshore and it provided little protection from northerlies and looked a bit barren so we continued on to San Juanico bay which looked far more promising from the write up in the guide book.
