welcome back to svbasic guys
it is such a beautiful morning
when we pulled in we went right into
richardson bay
and anchored there for the first 72
hours
so we are just settled in
anchorage in richardson bay gosh it just
feels like
not that long ago that teal and i were
here with our first boat
but this is the first time in a very
long time that we
are back in a city environment
doesn't feel that much different i'm
just so
happy that the smoke and the haze
has lifted and we can breathe
but it's just you know it's just taking
it all in it's just a new adventure
sounds like there's a concert up on
shore i would love to go and see what
they're doing but
you know we had just a long day
and we just want to get just relaxed
and kind of take it all in it's kind of
like
we've come full circle with emma here
and um yeah it's just been
it'll be fun we didn't realize that
there was
a timeline on where we were anchored and
there's not very many places
uh to anchor here but it was
just a nice couple days there we did
decide to go into marina for
a night or two just to go pick up some
supplies drop
off garbage refill our water tanks
we have a couple more things to do
before we head towards angel island
tomorrow morning and one of that
is to fill our propane tank it's kind of
funny i never thought it would be an
issue but apparently it is there's not
very many places
along the bay that will fill it so
somebody told us that um we just had to
go a little bit further in
and we can actually go by boat so we
took our dinghy it's high tide right now
and then there's this little estuary
that snakes through
and right alongside it is a little trail
so teal
went over and he's getting our tanks
filled
and emma and i are just kind of hanging
out it's kind of neat because it's like
this little
oasis in the middle of the city yeah you
don't really realize it but this is just
gorgeous and it's calm and there's
nobody here
so we just have our little paradise yep
it's really cool
there's the captain you gonna hop the
fence
could i have to here here
help me
good for you open it up
thank you you're welcome okay let's go
emma
and then we headed out again we're here
just off of belvedere
here and on the other side
is sausalito and we had a
viewer actually secure us a mooring ball
off of the corinthian yacht club so that
we can go and explore angel islands so
thiel is just kind of checking our
systems
we're going to pull up the anchor and
then we're going to head over there
now that is on the other side of
belvedere
and literally it's like two miles away
so i'm really excited this is going to
be an awesome day
the sun is shining the fog is lifting
and we're starting to get a view yes and
we have an amazing view
look at this golden gate bridge this is
peeking out through the fog
views of downtown the bay bridge you can
see alcatraz
treasure island angel island from here
it's just amazing
[Music]
rolling up our hard top huh
every day you mentioned it every day
because every day i wake up and there's
no hard talk
it's coming you keep saying that it's
coming
he's such a tease i mean literally he
keeps saying it's coming
it better
what this works
okay it's not real elegant
it works for now
what a muddy mess i think uh wash down
pumps in our future
[Music]
so there's a change of plans we pulled
in
in front of the corinthian yacht club
and
it was blowing pretty good so we're on a
lee shore
didn't seem like it was a smart thing to
do to
tie up to a mooring ball there it'll be
a bumpy night yeah it would be a pretty
bumpy night so we decided that we're
going to sail into
san popo bay and explore in there it's
going to be a great day sale though
because the wind is just perfect it's
just
nice and brisk and we'll be able to sail
the entire way
super excited
[Music]
so here's our home for the night
paradise cove
[Music]
it's a quiet little anchorage
you know we planned on going uh
grabbing that anchor ball right off of
tiburon but it was this
was a little too choppy and boy the wind
just funnels
right there between angel island and
that
point of belvedere and the sea state was
just a
a bit lumpy so we decided to hook it
around the corner here
i'm glad we did everything just laid
right down we were able to sail
all the way here and it was a nice
little sail
it's only a couple miles but we gotta
enjoy a nice leisurely evening with a
wonderful meal
lynn made fried chicken wings
and mashed potatoes it was just amazing
so we're gonna settle in for the night
and
see what tomorrow has to offer kind of
like this here
maybe we'll stay a day we don't know
we'll figure it out tomorrow
[Music]
what are you guys laughing about you
what did i do
picked up a camera and pointed in her
face that's what i do
okay well it's been a nice place yeah
actually i've really
enjoyed it here you know we've been here
two nights
and we can either do another one or take
off and there's probably time
i say let's go i mean you know me
i know i kind of been so beautiful i
mean this is just calm and
serene and beautiful views and hardly
anybody anchored here
i know i mean i like couple boats here
and there but it's not like over in
sausalito where you're fighting
for a spot with 200 other boats exactly
but you know what i've really enjoyed it
the sun's been out the smog and the fog
have
not really affected us at all i know i'm
surprised that not very
many people are here i know our solar's
been just going crazy we're putting out
1.5 to 1.6 kilowatts a day
which is perfect for us that that uh
means we could just uh
live indefinitely off the grid at that
point indefinitely
right here in paradise cove emma
yep are you ready to go yes so are we
just waiting for the ties to turn then
yeah we have about i don't know 10 15
minutes
i mean why fight the tides we're only
going six miles
six miles big day big day so
we'll head under the bridge and find an
anchorage over by
uh china camp i think a couple of
anchorages over there we'll
check that area out i hope the wind
picks up so we can do a little sailing i
think it will it has every afternoon so
i'm hopeful emma
yeah you ready to head out for sure
okay
let's start i'm just starting one engine
for now
oh
[Music]
[Music]
so funny thing about me is
i have the worst fear of bridges
especially double deckers this is the
richmond sam raphael bridge and it's a
double decker
this freaks me out like you wouldn't
even believe i would never
want to drive on this thing and if i do
i would have to be on top there's
something about being on the bottom that
creeps me out i think that it's going to
collapse on me
so any chance we get teo will try to
avoid it for me
but it is a pretty cool bridge to look
at
[Music]
i think that teal is in the dog house
again because
every morning i make an effort to come
out
and wipe down all the dew on the decks
to make it nice and clean
well every single time teal pulls up the
anchor
he leaves his mark not in a good way
i have to say that he leaves what i can
only describe
as a but skid
all over the decks look at this muddy
mess
and every single time
he swears that he's going to put a wash
down pump
up here so then he can clean up his mess
hasn't happened yet
hey what are you doing about
i'm gonna have to do some more work
it's colin never fails
he has his priorities
okay we dropped the hook in china camp
[Music]
looks like a cute little place we'll uh
head to shore tomorrow and explore
the wind's just starting to pick up you
know we had a nice breeze all morning
but it was light now it's uh it's
building
it's making the anchorage a little bumpy
right now that's only because the
the tide is flowing in and the wind is
coming out
and so everybody in here is doing the
little dance
keeps you sideways to the fetch and
makes it a little bit uh uncomfortable
but as soon as the tide changes
about three more hours we'll have the
tide in our face
and the wind interface and it'll just
lay right down and we'll have a nice
quiet evening
so the wind's picked up in the last i'd
have to say
i don't know half hour 45 minutes
and everybody seems to be doing well we
have about eight boats in the anchor
with the exception of one it looks like
he is dragging anchor
and teal is um kind of
setting up because it looks like he's
dragging right into us
i don't think that he's going to because
he looks like he's aware of it right now
but i don't know
[Music]
okay get emma up here okay we all need
to be on fenders right here
[Music]
well i'm gonna do what i can to get
ready for this guy to hit us
[Music]
okay emma yeah
just watch carefully we're gonna put on
some fenders casey comes real close
this guy's drifted already a half a mile
it's like they handled it
[Music]
boy that could have got ugly quick but
i'm glad they uh had a grip of it
looks like crisis averted i don't know
if they're leaving the anchorage or
heading home i don't know but all is
[Music]
[Music]
well
[Music]
you
