Going Everywhere. Very Slowly.

We shared one of our favorite anchorages at Isla Danzante with the likes of She’s No Lady, JollyDogs, Mamala, and new friends to us, S/V The Answer. Lucky for us, our new friends had a …

In case you haven’t noticed, we’re on our second lap here in Mexico, writing about places we’ve been and seen (and you’ve seen on the blog) last year. But we love these places, the people, …

Well, it was a record for cruisers in La Cruz – which is known as one of the “Velcro” towns in Mexico – we made it outta there in only 4 days! It was a …

We got our first taste of the storm season with Tropical Storm Lidia in late-August/early-September. The communication among cruisers in the Sea of Cortez relative to weather is impressive. There are a couple of radio …
