Dinghy to Cabo Blanco Hotel & Marina for pool fun etc - 2019

Took our Achilles dinghy from the Bahia de Navidad Lagoon in through the canal to the Cabo Blanco Hotel & Marina. They are cruiser friendly and have a dock. We had limonades with our guacamole and chips.  Then we played in the pool.  We walked to town to pick up some fruit to spend the time until the hotel restaurant opened for lunch.  After our caesar salad and fish tacos, we enjoyed playing in the pool with our frisbee and rubber balls! A very fun way to spend the afternoon😁

Paddle boarding in Cuastecomate anchorage - 2019

I paddled over to s\v Interlude with Tony and Peggy on board. Ok as we were talking after a while I lost my balance and fell in. But the water is warm and I was getting hot so it was just fun. This was in the Cuastecomate anchorage, Mexico.

Cuastecomate Anchorage, Mexico - Kayaking - 2019

This rock has a hole in tt. It really is a point of land. It is on the other side of the bay from where we are anchored. A good wave comes in and the water spouts out the rock with a nice roar. 

Bottom cleaning in Cuastecomate anchorage - 2019

The water was not as clear as I had hoped. We found out why - 
later that afternoon the red tide came in. Still, it was clear enough to clean 
the bottom and clearer then a marina or lagoon😜

Schwag at Bahia de Navidad, Mexico - 2019

"T" shirt back.
 Bananas came recommended as a having a good breakfast, 
which we were looking for. They did and it is right on the beach
 upstairs in a hotel. I could not resist a little Bahia de Navidad schwag 
as we have never before purchased any touristy thing here in the past visits.

J-Series VacuFlush tank serviced...a "Poo Story" - 2019

This is our J-Series Vacuum Tank that needed servicing. It stopped holding a vacuum. 
 So how come this always happens at anchor? A week and a half at anchor and we need to service this tank! Anchored here in the Bahia de Navidad Lagoon!

Chamela Bay to Cuastecomates to Barra de Navidad lagoon - 2019


A good day of sailing however we could of used a bit more wind or the wind could have lasted longer. We got about four hours of good sailing out of seven hours of passage.

Two new Samsung Galaxy Tab A Tablets purchased - 2019

My Samsung Tab 4 died. It was an older, refurbished tablet that I came to like. We shopped around and decided to go with Samsung again. The 8" tablet for us is a good size. 

Amidships blue LED lights now for night sailing, update - 2019

These blue LED light strips on the solar panel above the dodger light 
the fore deck nicely. However, the switching for them needs to be improved
 upon.  Originally we put these up for anchoring and sailing and now 
we see the value during night sailing. The switch can be set to flash and dim but we probably won't ever use that on the dodger with these lights.
