We looked at the weather and the date. Weather said we wanted protection from westerlies. The date said we needed to hurry to Santispac to arrange a ride for the music festival on 3/9. We decided to go to Chivato then to Santispac but then spoke with Jim and Pat in MV Despedida and they were anchored at Bahía el Burro on the east side of Isla San Marcos. We decided to join them. They invited us for dinner. It took us a bit to get there because the plug was stuck in the dinghy. They served a wonderful baked pasta dinner.
This was an example of the best laid plans… the weather “prediction” had been for a calm night…. At 12:30 AM that changed and we had a very rolly night from then on. This was the first night that Jim and Pat had anchored out overnight. A “GREAT” introduction!
Neil, Reneé, Pat, and Jim
