Such an amazing day🥰

From sunrise coffee to sunset party🍹

The day was just just perfect! We left Isla Cedros, watching the tugs towing the salt barges into the salt refinery on the south entrance of the island. Wind built quickly and soon we were sailing at 7 knots, heading for Turtle Bay. Sarantium was surfing and keeping wind in her sails for the 9 hours it took to get to the entrance of Turtle Bay. The entrance was wide, however had some kelp that we managed to pick up with the hydro vane rudder. We also had to avoid a wreck in the middle of the entrance of Turtle Bay. According to our books the wreck was visible to the eye, but we couldn’t see it so we relied on our GPS and stayed clear of it. The wind continued to push us all the way into the bay and we could sail right to our anchorage. We noticed two sailboats, a monohull and a trimaran, and anchored close to them and at only 4 meters of depth. As soon as we had set anchor we jumped in the zodiac to go and find some fresh produce. We were both craving apples and orange, as we had been rationing on fruit. When we approached the beach two people were walking towards us and caught our beach landing. They welcomed us and invited us to join their barbecue with their families and friends. Turns out they were a family of four from Powell River, heading to La Paz and then will continue to French Polynesia, Hawaii, Alaska back to BC. Others were “trimaran Jeff” and his crew, a couple from Switzerland and Spain, and a few locals. We spend the evening exchanging sailing stories and sharing a meal of freshly caught fish. We also found a grocery store with fresh fruit and veggies. The perfect day❤️ really. The anchorage is quiet and still so I’m hoping to sleep well! Good night from Turtle Bay… half way down the coast of Baja!
