Puerto vallart to Tenacatita

We managed to get the sails up shortly after 13:00 AND SAILED UNTIL 22:00 WHEN THE WINDS FINALLY DIED OUT. We ran basically downwind, mostly under headsail and mizzen. We had the big heavy Genoa up that Derek and Anthea had given us in 2006 before they left and it was a great sail. It was made for the boat which is amazing as it most definitely was not made for this boat. Anyways, we had a great sail while it lasted and then motored our way through the rest of the night. We arrived in Tenacatita around 07:00 and were comfortably anchored by 07:40. There are a number of boats here that we know so we should be busy catching up with them over the next few days. Already we had fresh banana bread on Toketie and then were invited to a potluck supper. Toketie (David, Linda, and Pheobe), Passat II (Barry and Sandra), and Jabula (Bruce and Jeannie) were all on board. A wonderful evening and a defacto Blue Water Cruising Association BURP (Bluewater Unofficial Rendezvous Party).
