Bella lives on a 33 foot Hans Christian named Baanyen at Pier 32 Marina in national city. She loves Dinghy rides and we have named our 14 foot Boston whaler after her “Bella’s Ride” we were on our way to the fuel dock during the quarantine.

Our late dog “TATA” was truly one of a kind, we rescued her from the streets of Bangalore, India as a puppy, brought her back with her official passport and documents to enjoy a great life here in USA. She was with her everywhere. On land or water. The most unique dog and family member we have ever had. We miss her but have so many great memories. Including expressions and time on the water like this.

I love sailing with my first mate, Sierra! We live in San Diego and own a 24 foot sailboat named Sancha. We have sailed hundreds of miles around the Pacific, with Sierra at the helm. She has been sailing since she was just two months old, and has a sturdy set of sea legs ... sometimes too sturdy! In rough seas, we have to tie her to a cleat, because not even bad weather will keep her from exploring.

She always gets me back safe

Well, no discrimination allowed. Ken D’Angelo submitted this photo of Tiller, an 8-year-old, 16-pound tourtie cat. He said she started boat life aboard his 45-foot Hunter sailboat Traveller in 2012 and now they own this Bayliner 4588, DagoRed. D’angelo said Tiller’s favorite pastime – besides eating and sleeping – is doing what her captain does: taking in the beautiful days of life on San Diego Bay.

Maura M. Brutti sent in this photo of her Goldendoodle Duke at Shoreline Marina. She said Duke loves the weekends!

David Birken submitted this photo of Mochi, a 7-year old Havanese.
