WORKNOT AT LAST BLOG RETURNS!!

We last updated our blog in April of this year with our trip to the Copper Canyon.  Please check out our April 9th posting and earlier for a view of life on a cruising powerboat. 
Our trip from Topolobampo to Isla San Francisco was uneventful and we almost made the anchorage before dark.   We traveled with our friends Salacia N40 again.  The trip took 13.75 hours. with beamy swells in the 4-6 foot range.   Winds peaked at 22 kts making for a wet but safe ride.  It was a relief to get into the lee at the picturesque Isla San Francisco….

Weather remained outstanding so we got some kayak time in (Keela seems to adjusting)  along with a little baking….

These were just as good as the ones we got in Myers Chuck Alaska (see previous blog entry) .   Warm weather helped too..
