Lovin these northerly breezes

By Lowell | April 30, 2016 | Category Baja2016

Thursday April 28th Punta Palpito >>>   Awesome, the northeast winds we’ve had the past 2 days return on  our way south from Mulege. Our first thoughts was to head for San Sebastian but by 10 AM we have  engines off and sailing downwind at 7kts. Time to set our sites on an anchorage further […]

Blame it on Mulege

By Lowell | April 30, 2016 | Category Baja 07, Baja2016

   Wednesday April 27th The photo left sets the stage for our day in Mulege. Perfect night in Chivato last night and we made the 7 mile leg into Mulege arriving mid morning with plenty on time to “Blame if on Mulege”. Hurricane Odile has been through Mulege since our last visit. The channel entrance […]

Chilled in Mulege

By Lowell | April 28, 2016 | Category Baja2016

Thursday April 28th Just a quick update to let everybody know we’ve got the frig running consistently. We seem to have the Danfoss compressor control board in a happy position after pulling it out for a detail inspection. Hopefully it holds for the remainder of this leg and we will bring a new one when […]

By Lowell | April 27, 2016 | Category Baja2016

Sunday April 24th – arriving Santa Rosalia   Our last visit to Santa Rosalia was with Craig and Linda Lyons 2 years ago limping Gato Loco north with motor problems.

Kino Surfing on our way to Baja

By Lowell | April 24, 2016 | Category Baja2016

Saturday April 23 It’s funning how you notice things for the first time somewhere you’ve been many times. It always amazes me when we spotted this window rock (below right side of photo, click to enlarge) in the southern anchorage of Dog Bay. Last night after the bee incident we moved to the south side […]

Shark Island Melodies

By Lowell | April 22, 2016 | Category Baja2016

Thursday April 21st   We’ll open with a fishing report and you can see fishing is good as Lynnie last touched the  pole cleaning the seaweed and BAM a 30” Yellowtail sushi monster. Jeffrey landed him and I let him do the gaffing honors. Darren will understand why when I let his dorado get free […]

Puerto Lobos before dark…

By Lowell | April 21, 2016 | Category Baja2016

Desemboque as we sail south   Wednesday evening April 20th We’re still reeling from Bill’s quick departure this morning. We know it’s the best for him but he will be missed. We’re hopping to hear good news about his mother.. With his absence we’ve got plenty of provisions so we will eat hardy. Before he […]

Provisioning done, Just add wind

By Lowell | April 20, 2016 | Category Baja2016

The Gato Loco cruise begins today.   Weather looks good for our departure except for the wind. We’re heading for Puerto Lobos on our first day out and it looks like the winds will be light and may be on our nose. Weather forecasts haven’t’ been correct all week and we hope we get SW […]
