SAN DIEGO: Okay here we go. After 10 days of waiting for our standing rigging to get replaced, we are shoving off! We're not quite blog-savvy yet, so we'll try to get better at updating the site with pics and text, (and voice even!) as we go. If time and wx permit we hope to stop for a day of surfing in San Juanico, on the W. Coast of Baja, and from there we'll head straight for La Paz in the Sea of Cortez to clear customs and immigration. We've loaded so many groceries and so much gear on board that we are currently sitting below our waterline! We'll see if the boat feels slow, and of course Dan will be tweaking the sails constantly to maximize speed. We hope to be in La Paz by Nov 1. We are aware of a hurricane about to hit Baja and will keep track of hit, hopefully arriving well after it's gone. Until then, all our best and thanks for all the support!!
