This photo is just too good not to share again. Last Monday, we posted the story of this eager sea lion joining a recent Tuesday night race in Santa Cruz. Full story here.
While you’re pondering your captions, perhaps you can also think of a name for this drop-in crew member.

And here’s the other photo, just to prove that this newest crew did indeed complete the race.

Dad’s such a helm hog! Thinks he’s the best thing since Dennis Conner! Just wait! I put Ex-Lax in his morning coffee!!
I said “Tack now!!!”
Dad, you said that you replaced the stern gland seal??
How long do I have to keep my tail flipping to get this boat moving?
Can come onboard? There’s a white shark tailing me.
Steve Seal just can’t give up racing (Wyliecat 30 insider joke)
Does the seal count as “auxiliary mechanical propulsion?”. And will it help in light air?
“Psssst….fella’s. I just heard the guy behind you say that he was going to fake a tack at the finish line.”
Signed. Sealed. Delivered. I’m yours!
Pardon me, have you any Grey Squid sauce?
Do you have any Grey Poupon?
“Marty” just needed a brief trip on a fast sled, to escape “Jack” (the Great White Shark).
Skipper, can our mascot “Cecil the Seal” come back aboard? He served his penalty time-out for pooping on the deck!
