NauticEdWinds were light mostly with occasional offshore blows of up to 18kts. But pro dominantly light to no wind. Motored all but 2hrs of the trip. We had an overnight stay in Dana Point, then off the dock at 0430 to finish out the run to Channel Islands Marina. Good trip overall with only minor issues with the boat.

Overnight two day crossing. Conditions varied from pouring rain to hot and sunny the second day from wake up until we finished the last lock and headed to Marina La Playita in Panama City. Then it poured again.
