Sept 22: San Simeon to Monterey

We again got up early today at 3am as we have a 17 hour sail to Monterey.   As we took off you could see the light moving away in waves from the boat and one could see fish lit up as the moved away from the boat.  This is caused by plankton phosphorescence.  Really cool.

We had many dolphin sightings and a few whale sightings as well.   The dolphins are fun to watch as they will swim along side and would jump all the time.  The seas were pretty rough as we moved into the late morning hours.

We had some nice size swells most of the day.

Here they are.

Les at the helm.  I think he is enjoying this.
