We did try to leave today, Wednesday for Humboldt - Eureka, at 4:30 am and after about three miles the swells were still 10-12 feet at 6-7 seconds, and the wind was expected to pick up in the late morning and early afternoon.
Given all that we learned from our Point Reyes experience, we did not want to take another beating. The weather was to get even better in the next couple of days, so we turned around and went back to the dock and tie up. It was a good thing as our friends in Pier Pressure the 93 foot yatch called to say that the Cape Mendocino was so rough that poor Allen was sea sick. Boy, can I feel for him having just had the same experience a couple of days ago.
