I had an engine fail yesterday while sailing in the South Bay. A few squalls rolled through to add to the timing of a sail only approach to the Sierra Point Marina, and of course the tide was low. It was a bit of slow slog upwind.

After years of sailing in an out of Santa Cruz harbor, I never understood why they set that channel so close to dead upwind, .
One Tuesday night beer can, with gusts in the 40's, I couldn't make the turn at #7 with just the reefed main, so down it came, and the storm jib went up. Only problem was I dropped the jib's sail bag outside the sea wall; going back for it almost pulled me and my boat hook off the boat.
