Sweet Pea Cove

This photo is interesting. Shows that you never know where you will face in Sweet Pea Cove. Each boat is facing a different direction. Lots of currents between the island and mainland here.

We are facing north, Nirvana east, Ubatuba southwest and way down there is Beyond Reason facing southeast....funny.

If you want the wind to die, raise a sail. Larry has a tough time with these crazy Baja winds  in summertime. At anchor we will see winds from every direction. Fortunately we have not had a large "Chubasco" wind. Our friends had 60 knot winds at anchor for several hours up near Bay of Los Angeles a few weeks ago at nine o'clock at night. Then dropped to 40 then 20 knots by 3am. Not so fun!

Larry and I cleaned the bottom of the boat. Rocky barking at Larry below.


Where did he go??

We have yet to take the dog off the swim step. First we need to take him to shore and see if he will swim with us. The tough part is getting him to dry. He has that layer of down under his hair that is important to keep dry on his skin.  The vet in La Paz told me to blow him dry. Blow dryer? What's that? Oh, you mean wind on the tramps? Best option.
