Sept 19: Santa Barbara to Coho Anchorage

We are off to fairly smooth waves and winds to have dinner and nap at Coho Anchorage on our way to Morro Bay.  We arrived at the achorage around 4pm and found an mooring ball so that we could connect the Windhorse.  Of course, there are are about 6-8 seals sharing the mooring ball and as we found out they keep talking all night long. One seemed to be sick or lost in love, as his voice so annoying.   We were the first in the bay and the only one using the mooring ball. Four other sailboats arrived after we did.  We found out later that that the mooring ball is privately owned and we could get knocked off at any time.  Fortunately, that didn't happen.   We had steak, zucchini, and salad for dinner and headed off to bed early.   Dennis is sleeping on deck and I will awake at 1:30am, at which time he and I will start our trek to Morro Bay.
