I had quite the adventure
First I went and found a burrito place, then I went to the Natural History museum, but they were about to close. Then I went to the mission and wandered around outside.

Finally I went down to the beach where I had seen a sailboat washed up on shore a few days ago.

I parked the car and walked over to the boat, and there were some dudes hanging out there. 2 young surfer dudes and an older guy. I started talking to them, and it turned out that one of the dudes owned the boat. He said that the moral of the story is not to buy a boat, and if you do either have an expensive anchor or keep the boat moored in the harbor.

He asked me if I could stand on a rope while he went and did some shit, so I did. Eventually this other dude came along and they all jumped in the water and tried to push the boat, so I jumped in the water too and helped push.

The water was pretty warm, and the waves were smallish, but I got knocked on my ass a few times. Then it started raining and damn it was wet. I gave it up as a bad job after a bit, and just watched the lads push the boat.

Good times.

3. It wasn't really dangerous
The only real danger was getting hit my the boat, and that didn't happen.

It was a good time, but I can tell I am going to be sore tomorrow. :P
