We relaxed most of the day and cleaned the bottom of the boat to remove the sludge that had collected since the last cleaning in La Paz. We had a visit from the Dolphins again last night, but this time they did not come close to the boat. Two other boats arrived, a Catalina 42 and a Hylas 49 and anchored close by. The Hylas 49 was purchased in New Zealand and had been sailed from there by the new owners, Jim and Ellen. We had met them in Puerto Escondido just before we left and Ellen had talked to us about their voyage from New Zealand to Hawaii at 35 degree latitude. Like many of the boats we have met, they are also headed to San Carlos for summer storage.
