Ha, Ann likes numbers and is always remarking on special “number” days. So here’s one. We left Puerto Los Cabos (or Cabo San Jose as the town is called) around 0830 after taking on the first fuel since San Diego. At this point, we’re a couple miles off the coast heading North and unfortunately motoring because; guess what? The wind is right on the nose! One of these days, we’ll time our departure to favorable winds.

We’re got the watermaker running, making 7 gph. The water is so blue and so clear out here you can see the rays of the sun penetrating down a good 20 feet or so towards the depths. Shimmers and glimmers deep down like a perfect aquamarine gem.

Arrived at Bahia Los Frailes in the early afternoon and dropped anchor as the wind was building. Unfortunately it’s out the South, making this anchorage somewhat vulnerable since it’s completely open to the South. We’re OK as long as it doesn’t get above about 15 knots or so as the anchor is buried deep. Several other boats what have been traveling at the same pace as us decided to pass on staying here and wished us fair winds as they continued up North.
