the Oceanside Breakwater from the north. I ask the Sicilian to take the con while I go below to kill the A/P. Come back up to the flybridge and she does not give up the helm. Let's see...south facin' harbor entrance with 5 foot swells on our port quarter. I stand back and observe as she keeps 100 yards off the entrance, goes past it, makes a turn to port, lines up smack down the center and enters. Never sayin' a word, she backs down both throttles and gives me the wheel while she goes below to lay out the fenders and get the lines ready.
Later that evenin' over dinner at the Jolly Roger, I casually mentioned that she brought a 10 and 1/2 ton boat through the Oceanside Harbor entrance and she says, "I did didn't I."
