Hola mi Amigos!🌵☀️⛵️
Wow! Is it really January 20th HUH? Some of this USA bit of a repeat for FB friends .
We are still here in the Marina, just everything is on Mexican time lol!
We did make it to the anchorage for New Years Eve, found a few more issues while sailing! But… we were out on the water, ya- HOO! .Last time we were here, I was suffering with some left over anchor dragging fear from when we were in Sicily! I was so happy to know I wasn’t feeling it this time.
So, we were back to the Marina and continuing with the fixing of things.( I’ll be honest, Cam is the one fixing things😉).

We now have full air conditioning, what a treat! The motor was repaired for a mere $150.00 and in boat world that’s .15 cents boat bucks! A relief, and that it could be repaired instead of buying a new one.
Yesterday we finally got a bunch of parts we were really needing, thank you Ron Tomas in Vancouver for making that happen! The package has new hinges for the hatches, we won’t be stressing out wondering if they’re leaking next summer during the rainy season. Also a new motor for the aft cabin head. Cam is installing that right now!
We are still waiting for our new shade covers ? The canvas guy has been txting almost everyday since well before Christmas saying he’ll be there at such and such a time …. But alas, he never does show up. It’s almost a game now- we’ve since learned that this isn’t unusual and there’s not much we can do other than wait ! As Cam says “ what are you going to do? Getting mad won’t help anything”.


We entered the Vallarta Cup race here, it runs two weekends . Last weekend we won our multihull class ( only one other boat lol) but still! Then we were very surprised to find out we came 1st overall on corrected time. We hadn’t raced this boat before, had no wind instruments and made a lot of mistakes lol. We will try again this weekend and we have more crew, most of which are also Trimaran owners.


The weather is just very pleasant right now!
Covid is getting worse again here, but not anything like BC. It was bound to happen. It’s very good here as far as rules go. We just stay on the boat for the most part other than getting groceries and a bit of visiting with fellow sailors.
I’ve been painting a bit, need to do more though! I tried my hand at a short story, then sent it to family.. apparently they really liked it ha ha!
Cam is keeping up with his Tai Chi workshops via Zoom! Pretty cool, he puts the lap top on the boat and does the Tai Chi on the dock along with the group.
We are so close to just plain old sailing!
We are in paradise but we miss you all🌵❤️☀️. Can’t wait for Covid to be over so you can come and visit us!
Cheers Stay safe ! ❤️ Cam and Vikki
P.S. the aft cabin head is now up and running yay!!!
