Sunday May 4th<\/p>\n

Sunrise with calm Puerto Escondido water. Lazy day waiting for the Leg 3 crew. Hit the Loreto Fest pancake breakfast and a seminar on tablet navigation host by Eric on Seawind Pied-a-Mer .  Kurt helped me put Gato Loco on the dock for the arrival of my crew late night then went and relaxed on our Canadian friends trawler OutaHere.<\/p>\n

Crew finally arrive 8ish. First stop was to visit friends and former crew members Steve & Cindy who are building a house in Loreto. Left is the guest house they are staying in while their house is being finished. It was too dark to get and pic during our tour of their place. We finished our visit with dinner at La Palapa, then on for provision to the boat where there was a little too much tequila consumed.<\/p>\n

Sunday May 4th.<\/p>\n

The new crew Murril, Darren, Nell and I looking ready for Rally week.<\/p>\n

First hours out of Puerto Escondido we saw 2 fin whales and Darren caught a 15# Bonita and we almost landed a 25# dorado. My slow gaff work is responsible for the lost dorado. Darren says he\u2019s the lucky charm and it certainly seems so.<\/p>\n

Today\u2019s destination Isla Monserrate where we had our Rally dinner hosted by Rob and Char on OutaHere and prepared by Kurt. The sail to Monserrate was a light air broad reach perfect for breaking in a new crew.<\/p>\n
