Another update...

Our prop speed is done, new bow thruster props fitted and tank full of fuel. But the Tammi lift is out of action for 48 Hours for maintenance! Added to all this is a big weather storm brewing, so we have decided not to splash back until Monday 21st. The slips here are not the strongest and we feel the hard stand behind a brick wall is the place to be.
With this extra delay, we have taken the decision to depart for the Marqueses from Ensenada rather than flog 865 NM down the Baja California to Puerto Vallarta, a journey that is essentially in a SE direction and thus away from Australia. Looking at the charts the distance is almost identical. PV to Marqueses or Ensenada to Marqueses, there is little in it, so this, we decided, is our jumping off point in early March. Meanwhile we have added some links to some people who have been especially kind and friendly to us during our stay here. Please visit their businesses by using our links here on the right.
