We tied up to a slip at Marina Del Rey after being towed into the harbor. Air in the fuel kept our engine running inconsistently enough to be dangerous upon entering a tight harbor filled with boats sailing in on a sunny Sunday afternoon.
Arrival at Marina del Rey was intentional to meet with Signet Corp for repairs on our depth finder electronics, but now Rick worked on the fuel lines also. Sunny, warm and nice helpful boaters were found along with a good pub. Watched the sailing vessels come into the harbor in the evening under sail, wing and wing.
Again we all worked as a close knit team. We are glad to have Denis on board.

Didn't I just HATE being towed in! Of course it was the sensible thing to do. Yep the teamwork was great the whole trip, we just seemed to fall into it naturally.
For me a great experience on this part of the trip was dodging the oil platforms in the Santa Barbara Channel. At night they looked eerie with their flare-offs and by day like some sort of majestic alien ships of war. I've got some good pix of them in my picasa album.
