We are a few miles over "The Line" having completed the bash and wrapping up our 4th extended Mexico cruise and cleared into the US via the CBP ROAM app - very cool! This bash was by far the best of my 5 (4th for LJ, 3rd for Junior). We had some long days with very early departure times but only 1 overnight. The longest run was from Muertos to Bahia Santa Maria (appx 280 miles). We had about 6 hours, in total, of really nasty weather, 1 full day of unpleasant conditions (fog and lots of rolling but no slamming) with the rest being fine. During our 16 day passage from Loreto, we got off the boat 4 times; Agua Verde, Puerto Los Cabos (fuel stop only), Bahia de Asunción and Ensenada. Bahia de Asunción and Cedros Village were highlights on this northbound trip while sitting in Turtle Bay for 4 days unable to leave the boat would be considered "suckified! (Jack-ism)" This trip, like the previous, was filled with great times. In Turtle, for example, we GROSSLY over tipped the kids in a panga taking our trash - it was a scene right out of that noteworthy Ikea commercial "START THE CAR, START THE CAR.." as the little guy with the money tried to signal his amigos to stop talking and to haul-ass before the stupid gringos realized what they had done. Priceless. Then there was a guy from the very small fishing village at the north end of Cedros who wanted to borrow a ratchet and 10mm socket to repair a panga motor. I gave the tools to him expecting that was the last I'd see of either in spite of him telling us in his broken English he'd be back. Will he did return and, with a big smile, told us good luck on our trip. That simple example typifies every experience Katie and I had over the 6 months spent roaming the Sea of Cortez. Even as they suffer the horrible impacts of COVID and the related shutdown of their economy, the Mexican people we met were so genuine and helpful one feels somewhat guilty or embarrassed, if not angry, over the "climate" emanating from our country. I'll leave it at that.... Katie and I did many new things on this trip which contributed to that feeling of excitement and anticipation we felt each day. We traveled over 3000 nautical miles (about 3,500 miles), used more diesel than I'm willing to admit, made a bunch of new friends and visited places we would very much like to see again - will we, hard to say after spending 16 days of traveling.... And those 16 days have been an adventure. Lobster Jack finally broke the Victoria no-fish streak landing several Dorado, Skip Jack and a bunch of bass while on anchor. He and Junior are great traveling mates and expertly carry their share aboard Victoria! Katie and I thank them both for helping to bring the boat home to Dana Point as we close out #4. We hope the peace and tranquility we have enjoyed stays with us for sometime! Gracias por los recuerdos y tu amistad. Espero visitar pronto mi viejo amigo
