Looking for a Catamaran Cruising Blog?

If you found this blog via a link from a cruising site ~ we did cruise Mexico on our Ocean 49 cat for a season. See the first text box on the right for links to our preparations, trip down Baja, life in Mexico, cruising and trip back up to SoCal. Unfortunately we are back to the grind in the USA...

Cooling Off at "The Mogote"

Ok, so the water by the marina is not something I want to swim in.
So we dinghy over to "The Mogote" to cool off on hot afternoons.
First we have to prepare...
Change into bathingsuits.
Get towels.
Put some drinks in the cooler.
Put lots of sunscreen all over.
Get hats.
Get two floaties (noodles).
Get the beanbags for the dinghy.
Lower the dinghy into the water.
Climb in, start the engine, untie and as soon as we are around the corner of the "big boat" we are instantly cooler!
Dinghy across the channel always looking for shoals and Jim with an eye on the depth sounder.
Find a place to beach the dinghy.
Drag the dinghy up.
Into the water and HEAVEN!
Cooled off!
Although today the water was at least 85 degrees (never thought I would hope for less...)












But oh the crowds...
