Hi!

Now that it is winter and sailing season is over (for me), I finally had time to learn how to use iMovie,,,which I used to create a slide show of my trip on the <i>Molly Jim</i>. We plied the waters of the Salish Sea and anchored among the San Juan Islands for a week.

We saw a lot of beauty and did some great sailing. I tried to capture that in the movie...Lots of beautiful pics and some fun sailing videos...

Here's the link:

I hope you have time to enjoy it. :-)

Are you sure....... cause it looked like you were wearing winter clothes in JUNE!!!!!

That looks like a beautiful cruising area. This is what boats are made for. Nice stuff.

I probably will never get to sail there. Because,... well,... it looks too damn cold......

Very nice "sail" movie :-)

Btw: you have a great launching extention on the trailer. It looks like there is only small bend on that bar. How long it is?

Great post, Dale. Beautiful scenery. Looks like a wonderful place to sail. Makes me look forward to getting my boat back in the water.

Very nice! I moved my boat from Sidney, BC to Anacortes on June 4, 2014 following the ferry route through the Wasp Passage. Beautiful scenery but a little chilly! 'The long drive north'? Oh yeah. I-5 from Sacramento to Anacortes, the sights look very familiar. Most of that drive has nice scenery also but a long drive. Made that trip twice last year, first time stopped in Eugene, OR overnight, next trip drove straight through from Mount Vernon, WA to Sacramento-16 hours.

Nice job of capturing the beauty of the San Juans and the appeal of gunk-holing on a small sailboat...

Wow! Thanks for all of the kind comments - and for taking the time to enjoy it!

A few replies:

Davy J: LOL! We were never in shorts, for sure. But I have to say, those aren't winter clothes! That is what spring looks like in these parts. Summer isn't until after July 4th. ;)

Redeye: We made room for 2 guitars - and played them most every evening. Plenty of room without the ladies aboard ;)

The whale sighting was amazing for sure! We sailed right up on the pod without knowing they were there. Suddenly, one breached 50 yards off the bow. Nearly wet ourselves!

csmcg: Please go! The trip was actually very easy and rewarding. I am even considering single-handing it this coming summer.

Thomas: I will check into the extension length next time I am near the boat. Between the extension and the WK, I can put that baby anywhere...which is good for my high-mountain lakes in Central Oregon.

Jan: Wish I had included music credits in the outro. Duh! Here they are in order:

1) Caledonia by The Ghourds
2) Mezio Capezio the Dancing Dog by Rich Niebaum
3) Dos Gringos by String Helix
4) Truckin' by The Grateful Dead
5) The Lighthouse's Tale by Nickel Creek
6) Echinacea and the Golden Seal by Taarka (I am the drummer on this recording!)
7) Sail Away by the Moon Mountain Ramblers (I am also in this band, tho this cut has no percussion on it.)

ct95949: I actually live in Bend, OR. The drive to Bellingham was about 9 hours with the boat. A gorgeous drive along the Cascades, "over" Mt Hood, along the Columbia...

Thanks again everybody! I will be sure to go next summer just so I can make a movie again LOL!

questions and comments about your boat. Is the dual anchor roller the one from CD for the cat 27?

Very, very cool trip! Love the San Juans - I lived in Anacortes for a couple of years - sadly without a sailboat.
