March 15: Day 3 We heard on the radio that the weather is coming our way so today I did our laundry while the weather was fair and there is sun with smooth seas. We are still in this lovely oasis of flat calm seas but the wind is dying. We are cutting through the […]

March 14: Day 2 The ocean is like a friend who has welcomed us home. The seas are flat and the wind is steady, Fearless is cruising easily at 7 knotts plus and we are giddy with the ease and joy of it. Out first day was one hundred and fifty miles.We cut through the […]

Daily Journal for Pacific Passage Well, this ended up being a long one! I knew that what at one point seems so important can be lost with mulling over so I decided to keep a daily log at sea. When at sea the days seem to blend together with the swells of the ocean and […]

Hallelujah! Our marine refrigerator repair guy came yesterday and filled the system with coolant and hunted down the leaks. This morning I woke up to a freezer that was reading twenty two degrees and fridge that was reading forty. I am so happy and I can’t wait to go. It seems like it has taken […]

Kill me now, please. Yesterday I wanted to put my fist through a wall. Today I am smiling and I don’t give a rat’s ass. We are planning to leave on Tuesday, which is the day after tomorrow. I am not sure that we will make that goal. After Gary and Odie left we got […]

Well, we were being old biddies, for the most part, and with Carnival in full swing we had made only the most feeble attempt to join in on the festivities. But there were a number of other cruisers going to enjoy the celebrations (and fireworks) so Brett and I ventured out and took part in […]

Mazatlan, Mexico Work, Work, Work Well after leaving Muertos we had a nice sail to Balandra Cove. We were heading to La Paz, it was just far enough away that getting there in one day was too much. So we left early enough in the morning to make it to Balandra in one day, which […]

Cabo San Lucas Waking up in Paradise It has been almost two months now since we left on our journey. I now know Cabo pretty good in my own little “gringa” way. I think I know why so many people go somewhere on their boats and just stay. It is such a relief to not […]

Feeling Like Hell in Paradise Well, it has been quite a few days since my last entry and so there is a lot to say and at the same time there is not very much that has happened. When we sailed into Cabo we had dolphins in our bow and it seems that we have […]
