Sunday, 18 May 2014 – Arrive San Pedro – By 1:00 a.m., we had closed to about two miles offshore just south of Dana Point. The weather continued to be favorable with just a slight wind from the Southwest; barely enough to motor-sail. We had lost the negative current and our speed over ground was at times hitting 6 knots. When George took over at 3:00 a.m. we were three miles offshore of South Laguna. Our route continued north towards Newport Beach where we adjusted our course for a direct line to Angel’s Gate in Long Beach Harbor. By 7:00 a.m. we were within sight of Long Beach and just after 7:40 a.m., we were at the entrance of the harbor.

On the way into Long Beach, we called Customs and Border Patrol (CBP) to alert them of our arrival, providing them with our information and ETA. We pulled into our slip at Cabrillo Marina at 8:20 a.m. and the CBP arrived about 20 minutes later to perform our check-in and give us our official clearance into the US. This was done in an efficient and friendly manner by three agents. This was a much easier process than going into San Diego to perform the US entry clearance which can lose you six hours of sail time. It is a great service and enables you to go directly from Mexico to the US.
