Russ:
I am told the Baja doesn't calm down till July/Aug. My insurance co. says I need be out of Mexico by June and ahead of the hurricane season. My plan is to allow plenty of time to make the delivery to San Diego. Friends of mine often will wait out the heavy afternoon weather till the middle of the night. Another issue will be fuel. I will need enough to go 450 miles before refueling. My tanks are good for 350. Four 5 gal. jerry jugs should do it.

I recently spent an evening presentation with the local Blue Water Carousing associasses regarding a trip back, up coast. The couple took the time and harbour-hopped back to B.C. inna 37' Ericson or something like that. I know from racing on a C&C 45 that going to weather in anything under 20 knots is mostly pleasant. Like I expect the coast to be if you're early in the season, before June/July when things really heat up. (When does the Baja really heat up?)

About 1100 miles. We then participated with about 130 other boats in the Baja Ha Ha rally to Cabo San Lucas. About 850 miles. We were fortunate enough to win our class. >From there we cruised around the tip of the Baja to La Paz. Another 150 miles. So after about 2100 miles Fury is safely moored in La Paz. I expect to go back to La Paz in Feb./Mar. to cruise with my family. In March we will be cruising to Puerto Villarta where will participate in the cruisers Banderas Bay regatta. After that we will cruise back to La Paz. In late April the plan is to begin the delivery cruise back to Portland. Because of the notorious northwest winds known as the Baja bash many of my friends are recommending that we sail home via Hawaii. Not sure about that, as it is 2000 miles longer.
