Fall Sailing

There are plenty of boats headed south for cruising season, while others are out just enjoying idyllic, sunny fall breezes. Lone Star was lookin’ good while out for a Saturday evening sail off Angel Island when she lined up midspan in the autumn light.  

Earlier that morning and headed south were Nicholas and Allison Edwards aboard their Beneteau 393 Salt. Nick explained: "Allison and I went on our first date six years ago, and it didn’t take long for conversation to land on sailing and our shared dream of going cruising. Coincidentally, we were both fortunate enough to be second-generation cruisers.

"In the years since we’ve worked, planned and dreamed, and attended to minor details like getting married and buying a boat. And after years of enviously reading dispatches from Latitude, we knew the Baja Ha-Ha would be the perfect send-off rally. On September 23, we caught the slack tide out of the Golden Gate, proudly flying our Ha-Ha burgee en route to San Diego and adventures beyond."

We’ll be looking forward to seeing Nick and Allison at the Baja Ha-Ha kick-off party in San Diego on October 29, and hope to see Lone Star on the Bay again soon.
