Just after midnight, the wind was gusty and peaked at 27 knots at one point forcing Mark to add a second reef in the dark with the help of the deck light. We sailed in smaller waves with a deep reefed main and jib. We were making speeds up 9 knots. It did feel like we were flying. We saw some lights on shore and several navigation lights but no boats. One freighter passed us in the shipping lane and then stopped and we passed it later in the night. Today as the wind died down the double reef was removed and we rode the Pacific swells that were large at times but well spaced and gentle to ride. Then with very light winds, we started motoring one engine with full main and jib flying. The winds stayed light all day. At times it was non-existent so we furled the jib. Took turns napping. Then the wind stayed around 8-10 knots so we stopped the engine. That didn't last long. Ended up running the starboard engine with the full sails but our speed was maybe 5 knots. There must have been some current against us. It was a struggle to make our expected speed. Mark checked the charts and coming up was Bahia Arenas with a couple of anchorages. We cut the corner thru a set of islands just offshore and eventually selected the second and more protected anchorage. The views are spectacular. The green hills mixed with rock were stunning. Then our first great Pacific sunset was seen after we anchored, snorkeled and showered. The sun literally sunk on a huge rock just offshore. I did take pictures so once we get to some wifi coverage, we will post them. Again the sky was littered with clouds all day long. We had a couple of light showers along the way. Good decision to stop. We had a visit from two young native fishermen who tried to sell us a small lobster. We are not huge seafood eaters, so we declined. We can see a few lights on the other side of the bay. We ate dinner outside in the cockpit with the cabin doors closed in case we get inundated with bugs. Did not see any bugs, thankfully. Took one of our cockpit cushions up on deck because it's the first time in a long time that we can see the stars. It's so dark that they stars look extra bright and shiny. There is a bit of cloud cover but it was an amazing site to see. Mark is finally getting to have some coffee. The boat has been so rocky and hot lately. Tonight, we have a cool breeze coming in our hatches. Should be a good temperature for sleeping. We are both exhausted. Tried to get our Tep wifi to work, but there is no coverage in this area. Would love to show you the beautiful scenery around here. Huge green mountains of all sizes and shapes with rock faces that look like someone's home. Once we download the weather we will decide if we continue our long sail to Mexico.
