I was so close to pulling anchor today as forecast showed perfect winds… but as I reflected back to similar thought process and recognizing the past wind patterns, direction and strength here in the sea of Cortez, I decided to wait until morning! I have set my alarm for 04.00, and now laying in bed wide awake and excited (and listening to the howling gusts) to make the next leg in my journey! Tomorrow will be the tail end of the El Nortes. With some luck, I’ll be in the middle of the Sea of Cortez within a few hours, and slowly steering Sarantium south!! Goodnight!

Love reading your posts. Inspirational at the very least. I hope it was a red sky at night and look forward to following along on the next leg of your journey. Happy sailing.
