Judy on the Foredeck
We had a very fast sail into Topolobampo, hitting mid eights consistently even though the wind was not strong; just a good angle I guess. Here Judy has just been forward preparing the jib to come down.

Pangas and Bahia de Ohuira
Beyond the town of Toplobampo there is a large inland saltwater bay called Bahia de Ohuira. It was here which we most wanted to explore. It seems to go on forever but it is only about 7 miles across.

Table Cloth in Baja
We learned that this cloud coming over the mountains in Baja means the same thing it does in at Table Mountain in Cape Town, South Africa: Wind! The Cool Pacific air is pushed up the west side of these mountains, where it gets even cooler, then is rushes down the east slopes and hits the waters near the shore with gusty winds. If you see this in the morning, watch out!
