Back in the water after 7 months of what seemed a neverending refit in the boatyard. Where do I start? We completely disassembled New Life and put her back together again, enrolled Nico in a local kindergarten, made friends, lost one, found alternative lodgings on and off the water, saw boats come and go – one even go down intentionally, and got to know and love this old port town of Sonora. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Along the way we enjoyed the company and friendships of numerous other boaters, some of whom have become good friends we have now known literally for years – around here and elsewhere in the Sea of Cortez.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Now the goodbyes are continuing as we settle back into boat life, stow all the loose gear on deck and provision up for our 2 week passage north. Between here and Porto Panesco the only place to stop for fresh provisions would have to be a side excursion back to Bahia Los Angeles village, a detour we should save for the way down, when we head south again after the summer in preparation for crossing the Pacific next year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For now we want to get New Life out of the Hurricane Zone, go home to catch up with F&F and give Nico a real school experience for one term.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We\u2019ll keep you posted on our blog, on FB and on YouTube again, so come and follow us for the journey!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
