20-21 knots (21 nautical mph = just over 24 statuate mph) for 125 miles, an unusually grey day, good for making time. Seas around a foot at 4 seconds but then increasing to higher left over wind slop with an occasional whitecap . The Suzuki never missed a beat, normally we would want to take slower hops but we wanted to be here for Marti-Gras then slowly work out way back up to Loreto. (We did make the super bowl kickoff here in La Paz!)

Morning coffee, nice view, Puerto Escondido. Setting up the dinghy and it's outboard, portable gas, paddle board, running in the watermaker and all the other things we need to get off the road and head out on the water. So far we haven't needed the shore power the solar is charging to 100% mid day running the fridge, freezer and everything else.starting to watch the weather (wind) forcasts....

In with the big boys at Marina Escondido, off south to La Paz in a couple days, it is so nice here it\'s hard to leave it is the fanciest most modern, luxurious marina now with new owners that I have ever seen. As you can see plenty of room for more c-brats! They also launched Sierra with a tractor while we were aboard, then put the trailer in storage.
