It is hot and humid. We arrived at Marina Mazatlán early this afternoon after a three and a half day sail from San Carlos.
Nautical Miles covered 385.05
78 hours 40 minutes elapsed time with
46.17 Engine hours
After 5 hours of being bounced around we turned on the engine and settled into a steady course for Mazatlán. At 7:40 a.m. we had covered 356 Nautical Miles and by 12:30 p.m. we were approaching the entrance to the Marinas in Mazatlán.
The entrance to the Marinas can be a challenge as it requires a sharp left and then right turn into the basin where the marinas are located. In heavy weather the swells can hit you broadside as you enter.
At 1:00 p.m. we officially tied up to the dock and turned off the engine. Mazatlán is currently hot and steamy although there is a nice light breeze in the Marina during the day. We are sitting in the cool of the AC and looking forward to a good night’s sleep with no three hour watches.
