We got underway at about 8 am. Which sounds late for us, but considering that with the time change dawn is at about 7 am, it is really not that late. We planned to go to Chamala, then spend the night and then to Ipala and spend the night then to La Cruz and anchor in the anchorage. Well, we figured out that we were making really good time (motoring as there was virtually NO wind, as opposed to the expected Big Wind today), so we decided to skip anchoring at Chacala and go straight to Ipala. We had a little excitement about 6 pm, as the depth finder decided that we were in shallow water (14 feet or so) as opposed to what the chart showed at about 600 feet. So, we slowed down and I got the handheld depth finder and it said — which translates to too deep for this device (350 feet or so). This cost us about a half hour, as a result we arrived just after sundown. We turned on all of our lights and anchored. It was a little rolly but not horrible. Reneé is having some issue with her knee, either an infection or a bump and it hurts. She used Ice and a wrap and antibiotics. Overall, a very dull travel day, just a gorgeous sunrise, sunset and a calm day on the ocean.
