Surprise! we are on our way to Puerto Vallarta! We decided on Tuesday that given the assured weather window now vs waiting until next week for an unknown regarding weather that we would leave the next day (yesterday) when friends Brian and Jan on SparrowsPoint were leaving. Jan and I did a quick trip for a few groceries, and stopped at a very nice pottery store, a family business.
Trip to Muertos Bay was wonderful, little wind and calm seas. A really beautiful day. We decided to head on down to Los Frailes so as to reduce the next leg of the trip from 39 hrs to 31. Arrived Frailes around 5:30 so had just enough light to find a spot and set the anchor. After dinner We enjoyed the full moon and lots of stars. Hope tonight will be as clear and bright as last night, makes the overnight crossing more enjoyable.
John and I just completed a process of coordinating way points for this passage, a bit of a challenge as we have so many electronic navigation devices. Next we will need to decide how to do our Watch schedule. I imagine we will stick with 3 hrs as we've done in the past.
