Update: Thank you CA for telling me about the omitted letter. I hate it when I do things like that, especially with a teacher waiting in the wings holding a red marker pen in her hand.

Maps On Monday. The Entrance To San Francisco Bay.

Shawn, take a look at the chart. This is why waves wrap around the point into the cove at (almost) 90 degrees. It's a good place to surf (if you like big rocks, crazy swells, cranky surfers, playing with strong tides and currents....not me).

The chart also shows you why you don't want to sail between the south tower of the Golden Gate Bridge and Fort Point.

You remember Capt. Joe Schidmt. He learned how to surf the hard way.

To quote the Puffin, "Munchola!"

This past Saturday, the crew of the ferry "Marko Polo", decided that they were thirsty and needed some shore leave. So they beached their ship on an island off the coast Croatia between Zadar and Sibenik.
