We are now in the Bay of Dreams also called Bahia de los Muertos, nothing to do with dead people...just
the heavy anchors on the sea bed to hold the moorings....DEADMEN.......can you see why they changed the name so the developers could sell the lots and homes???? It is on the East side of the Baja peninsula 35 miles sw of la paz... We will stay here a few days because of the 48 hours of "northers"...winds up to 20 mph... then on to La Paz. It took14 hrs then 58 hrs of continuous sailing to get here, about 400 mi.We left from La Cruz .. We had a great dive in clean clear water at an island on the way... Isla Isabela. which is a frigate bird and boobie bird sanctuary. It was exciting to see the nests and the babies in all stages of developement. Lady Lexi made the crossing like a trooper. Most of it was motor sailing but we got some great sailing some in winds so strong we had to reef the sail....70 gals diesel...75 hrs motor...
