I am happy to report that I am safely back in San Francisco after 500 miles stopping only long enough for fuel. The weather was as good as it gets so I planned the trip to pass both point conception and Pt Sur between 2 and 5 am on consecutive nights. It is a little bitter sweet coming back to San Francisco but maybe next year I will go back to the islands of Southern California.

I am embarrassed to report that I will postpone my sail to the Sea of Cortez any farther south. It is increasingly difficult to locate dependable crew and this boat is just too big for one person to safely handle. Sailing is inherently dangerous and I am keenly aware that at any moment I am one step away from hurting myself. I just returned to San Diego and will give a last effort to locate crew, if not I will begin the sail back north to San Francisco.
I am in the process of plotting a few optional courses pending on conditions.

I left San Diego before dawn to make the 60 miles to Ensenada. I wanted to be in by dark since this was my first solo passage. The morning was chaotic with a lot of inbound traffic and my navigation equipment going offline at the same time. After sunrise the day was pleasant and warm but very little wind.

Matthew and I are thinking of you and missing you around the marina.
Hope you're great!

apwhitt is my contact. seems pretty decent and simple. Hopefully I make it down this winter
After the Baja Ha Regatta i will take a berth at the Costa Baja Resort in La Paz, Mexico for a few months. I think It will be a nice spot to meet more boaters and take day or weekend sails in the Sea of Cortez. Check the Calender if you want to visit. I have a few request now and I hope some of you can come down.
