Day 14
14 November 2016 | Cabo Awards time.
We explore the docks and areas around. These docks are huge. We walk miles. Found a Starbucks in town.
Back to the boat for a snooze. One of the crew isn't so well Picked up a virus thats been doing the rounds. Thinks he got it in Santa Maria. Sure hope I don't get it.
Awards ceremony tonight.
We came in third in our division. Out of 13. Not bad for a cruising boat and given our sail problems I think we did well.
I congratulate our crew. We are all on a high. A natural high.
Highlight of the night was the helpers award. Who was most help on the trip down? It went to the boat that towed another sail boat for the entire third leg. They had both engine and sail problems.
They tied a plastic line between them to indicate they were towing as they walked up on stage to collect their award. Howls of laughter.
What fun.
Funniest moment was the snoring contest imitations.
We say good bye to our lady crew. Now I'm down to one crew member. Thats OK. We can manage.
Oh why did I spend so many years at work when I could have been sailing. Well I guess I didn't have the money.
And we had responsibilities.
I wouldn't want to be without our kids.
All Im missing now is my darling.
I sure wish she was with me and I really look forward to seeing her soon.
