The Author lost the race. S/V "Corine" proceeding up the coast to San Diego from Ensenada, the storm was heading down the coast to San Diego. The dejected loser put into the anchorage at Coronado Del Sur and proceeded to the Customs dock in San Diego the next morning in the rain and mist rolling from gunnels to gunnels in a high, sloppy, and windless sea. Customs are located on the south end of Shelter Island at the Harbor Police docks. These docks have now been rebuilt replacing the old wooden docks which were in an advanced stage of deterioration, one had actually floated away in a storm. The Harbor Police advise that there are now 26 slips available, fees will be from $10.00 to $20.00 per day depending on the length of the boat.
