Thursday, 27 March 2014 – The boats that left Barra before us have all arrived. After checking in with the Port Captain at the marina office, we walked through the marina, frequently meeting with fellow cruisers from Barra, San Carlos, and La Cruz.  In the month while we were in Barra, many of the “Puddle Jumpers” (Boats sailing to the South Pacific) had left.  Now in late March, the marina is filling up with cruisers like us from the south, heading north toward the Sea of Cortez. We expect to remain in La Cruz for 7-10 days before continuing to Mazatlán for a couple of weeks and then at the end of April, we will cross the Sea of Cortez to San Carlos ready for our ‘Bash’ north to Los Angeles.

We called Morelli Sails this morning to book our Genoa in for a new sun luff. He is still working though making and repairing sails for boats waiting to leave for the South pacific. It will be at least a week before he can work on our Genoa.
