Day 4 – Crew Change

– In Santa Barbara our slip neighbors were on a beat up and sustaining tri-meran, complete with tomato plants and solar panels. They had spend the last year on Catalina Island and left because there wasn’t enough surf. As promising as our trip was, it wasn’t looking promising. We pushed out of the harbor and motored west to Campus point to pick up the new Crew. We dinghed into shore and Nathan stepped onto land to depart us. Tripp, Andrew, and Erica were soon aboard and after loading all their gear, some more food, ice, and beer, and a dive under the boat to check the keel we pulled up anchor and cruised back to Santa Barbara Harbor where we made Anchorage for the night.
