Sailing with Celestial's Tripp

We hardly had any wind as we departed from La Paz so each day we stopped our 'motoring' to see if the next day would bring more wind. Even here in rocky/rolly Cabo roadstead, there isn't much wind but we WILL leave tomorrow. We have fresh gribs and the weather is still favorable so here we go. Now you can plan 14 days from 3/15 instead of 3/11!

The picture is of the Navy who stormed by us many times in La Paz but we didn't get stopped leaving - which was good.

About:	On our first boat in 1977 Scott said, "One day I'd like to sail around the world." We did that from 1988 to 1996 on a J-36. Now we own our 4th boat, a Tripp 47 'Celestial' that we are retiring on.
Extra:	We sailed from Maine in 2009 to Panama, up to Seattle, back down to Mexico and over to Hawaii in 2012. 2013 we went to NZ, Aust. and the South Pacific returning to Hawaii in 2015. In 2016 we sailed to Alaska and back to the Northwest. We kept our boat in Portland until April 2018 when Scott and [...] various crew took it to Ensenada to repaint and repair it after 9 years of hard sailing. Now November 2019, we will spend our 2nd winter season in Mexico. More
