Well,
thanks for all of the responses. Coast pilot data is the best
reccomendation I got from you all. Noaa had old data but still
couldn't find trend data there...

I was rather hoping to here from someonewho had made the trip, but
alas...

I haven't been to the library yet, I guess that's next.

thanks again,
tom

I'm going to sail a 60 year old, 48' (LOA) ketch from SFO to Seattle.
I was wondering what the best time of year would be for a trip of this
nature.
One fellow told me that now (Sept.) would be a pretty good time but
Life is going to keep me hear untill Nov. at the least.
I've been trying to search for prevailing wind patterns on the pacific
coast but there doesn't seem to be much info out there (or perhaps
google is just not what I thought it ws).

Anyone made this passage before?

Any suggestions?

Is there a better forum for this question?

thanks,
tom
