Nov14
This morning we headed out early with the hopes of making it to Ensenada de Los Muertes before the forecasted winds would build to 20kts around noon, according to the GRIB. Well noon was apparently at 0700 today. We made good time until then we were driving into 20kts at 2-3kts and pounding seas. So we turned tail back to Los Frailles as did three other boats.
I just went over the Sonrisa Net, Buoy Weather and a new source I found Stan’s Weather Pages. Only Stan had it correct. His forecasts are available on Saildocs, here’s a link to his home page: http://www.weather.solmatesantiago.com/
We’ll be crossing comparing more but its nice to see one guy who got it right.
Looking forward to reciprocating your hospitality sometime soon. Great to meet you!
Hey guys, not sure when we passed you by, but we are in La Paz now. We had a couple very interesting nights at anchor along the way. To balance it out we had a wonderful sail from Muertoes to the Balandra anchorage. Hope to see you here soon!
It is the 21st, and we are here in Cabo for a couple of days. weather wise, we have had great luck with Don Anderson’s forecasts on the Amigo net. See you in La Paz real soon
