December 5th - Mazatlan

Slept good and up early. David checked the Wx and it looks like winds and waves are going to be picking up Friday afternoon and continuing for a week, so, if we want to get to Puerto Vallarta, we better go today. Family Time came to the same conclusion. Will leave here around 2:00 this afternoon. I will take some photos of the entrance to this inlet when we leave, lots of current and very small.

Went to a brand new Walmart here after breakfast. Nice store, lots of good produce. Rode in a little taxi to and from the store with Greg and Jenny. $70 pesos each way.

No breeze this morning but the winds are a coming!

Leaving Marina Mazatlan

Heading into the channel next to El Cid Marina

Current not too bad, yesterday it was hauling!

Almost there

Breaking out into the ocean

Adios Mazatlan! We'll be back.

Cool clouds tonight

Sun setting

Last light, crescent moon and Venus in view.

Had BLT sandwiches for dinner. We are rolling around quite a bit as the waves are hitting us on the side. Next boat we get will definitely have stabilizers! David hit the sack at 7:30. I am taking the first shift on the helm.
