To Cabo San Lucas – Leg Three

It is now Wednesday, November 2nd and we are at sea and heading for Cabo San Lucas. The weather has warmed up considerably and the sea temperature reads 84 degrees. We are motor sailing as the wind is too light to use the sails.

We all left Bahia Santa Maria at 7:00 am, anxious to complete the final and third leg of the Baja Ha-Ha. During the morning we caught and released two nice Dorado as we have enough fish to last us for some time. We had lost one lure so we resorted to making them out of Beer and Soda cans. The Coors Light was snatched off the line and later in the day we had a fine catch on a 7-Up can. The first was at least 5-6 feet long and gave me a heck of a fight. Just as we were about to land it, the line snapped and the lead shot, which is use to weight the line, shot back and hit me hard in the neck. I was left with a nice Hickey, just as well Anita is on the boat.
