A Day in San Francisco

Stayed at Dave's last Thursday night, got up and took BART downtown to be at the Mexican Consulate by 7:30 am on Friday. Back to Dave's for a fish taco lunch - yum, did laundry and looked at the rest of his wedding pictures.

    Hello.
    Just found your blog, while i was googling about westsail/fairweather 39.
    Nice to see someones blog, about sailing with this boat.
    I love this boat so much that keep searching info about it, and hopefully some day will buy one :)
    Can you please make a video about the boat, the interior and exterior of the boat.
    And it would be great if you post a review of what you think of the boat the pros and cons, since there is little info about it.
    Sorry for asking this, but would love to read and see the videos about it.

    Hope you'll keep posting great news about the westsail 39.

    Have a great time with the boat.
    Fair winds and calm seas.
    Bye

      Sorry.........I was just going back and reading our old blog posts and saw your comment of 9/25/10. I don't know if you are following our blog anymore or not, but we have had the boat in Mexico now for almost ten years. We are now contemplating selling her.
      We have absolutely loved her and have continued to add and upgrade gear.
      We may be putting her on the market in October 2019 in San Carlos, Sonora, Mexico.
      If so we will have a link on our blog to another blog with all the boat info. If you want information prior to that please send us an email: loombaloomba@gmail.com

Mexico Ferry Travel: Getting from Guaymas to Baja and Back

Since our car was in Puerto Escondido in Baja and we and Loomba-Loomba were in San Carlos on the mainland, we decided to make an adventure out of getting the car over to the mainland and do a Copper Canyon trip on the way back to Guaymas. This involved two different ferry trips, a bus, lots of driving, and a train. Ferry travel is not cheap or easy in Mexico.  We arrived at the 8PM ferry  (Guaymas – Santa Rosalia) on Saturday May 27 th at 6PM, as required.  There had been some pretty strong northerlies for a few days and the ferry isn’t very big so we asked if it was definitely going to sail. They said yes so our friend, Ray, who had given us a ride from San Carlos, left.  At 7:45 they decided the weather was too bad to go – next ferry would be Monday (maybe). We took a taxi back to the boat and decided to wait until Tuesday the 29 th . This time we had Ray ( who speaks fluent Spanish) call and make a reservation in a cabin for us for Tuesday. ...

North to Southeast Alaska

Our old friend, Roger, invited us to join him (as crew) on his first leg home from Sitka to Seattle. We did the first leg (and most scenic) from Sitka to Petersburg. He has been heading north on a boat from the Seattle area every summer since he was a little kid so he knows the area well. We flew into Sitka (arriving at 3PM), got a taxi to the harbor, jumped into the skiff, headed out to the boat, and we were on our way to Kalinin Bay on Kruzof Island for the night.  (Jim's hat says "Where's the Fish") The next morning we headed north and into the Pacific along the Khaz Peninsula, inside Klokachef Island, up around Khaz head and then various anchorages around Baranof Island, Admiralty Island and Kupreanof Island. The weather wasn't the greatest, but we did have some sunny days, mostly calm waters, lots of wildlife and good fishing and beautiful scenery:
