Hi,
Is it feasable to think about sailing a 28-ft boat up from, say, LA to
Pt Roberts, singlehanded?


Hi:
There was a troll here a few months ago about the time the
"professional crew" died when a cat washed up on an Oregon beach. The
troll desribed your same trip with the exception of leaving in
november and the boat was 45'+. There were some very somber responses.
I grew up on the centeral Oregon coast, commercial fished, and sailed
Cresent City to Neah Bay areas over the years. I have never consider
myself fully prepared for any PNW passage.

Do a Google search in this group. There are some very good
conversatoins about your "Dream." You want a blunt opinion?
Yould be one stupid **** thinking you can hop on that pea pod and sail
noth and expect to actuall get there. I would estamate a 95%
probability your boat would end up on the beach and
you ...............

It aint called the Grave Yard of The Pacific for nutun.

Truck the boat. Spend five years attempting to saill daily out of any
of the OR-WA estuaties (bays) then you'll be able to answere your own
question.
Bob
