Sorry we have not been very diligent about updating our blog.
Quite a bit has happened since our last post. We have bought a larger boat, named Heeling Touch. It is a 40 foot O'Day sailboat. We launched on December 3rd after a few days in the work yard to get her cleaned up and it took about 3 weeks to get most of the bugs out and get things in order.
On Dec 26 we sailed to Santa Rosalia, about 75 nautical miles west,northwest of San Carlos. It is on the Baja Peninsula.
After spending a week there, we sailed south to Bahia Concepcion for 4 nights there. The bay is about 20 miles long by 5 miles wide with some nice beaches and many anchorages.
It took us 4 more days to sail south to Puerto Escondido, about 12 miles south of Loreto. It is a well protected harbor from the south. Used as a hurricane hole in that season. Right now it is blowing from the north about 25 knots so we are getting pushed around pretty good. Hence the early morning post.
We plan to leave for La Paz in a few more days and hopefully spend a month down there.
Weather here is great, mid 20's most days. Much nicer than what we see on the weather page back home.
