No news is good news as they say. Did have
our big orange sail rip along a seam. The same thing happened on the San
diego to Cabo trip and Lauren fixed it up but the seam above it ripped this
time. John Caruso in La Paz was right, the stitching was really done
poorly so we have to retire that sail for the trip and maybe we will re stitch
it on a later date. I did see a shark fin behind the boat earlier, it
wasn't following but did cross quite close. Couldn't tell the size, all I
could see was the dorsal fin and it was about a foot and a half out of the
water. We do wear harnesses when on deck but that still put chills down my
spine to see one out here in the middle of nowhere. Wind seemed to have
picked up some so hopefully we will put some miles behind us.
