Armand and Liya aboard Cosmo catch a fish — likely bonito or black skipjack, identity debated — within two miles of leaving La Mona, using a sparkly pink lure.2:35 They sail to Bahia de Los Angeles (BLA), where a summer thunderstorm rolls in from the mountains with gusts reported at 30 knots gusting into the 40s at La Mona.3:15 Before the storm hits, they pay out 200 feet of chain in 30 feet of water and stow laptops in the oven as a Faraday cage to protect electronics from lightning.6:04 The storm passes in roughly 30 minutes.8:49 Fuel logistics at BLA are a recurring challenge: the nearest fuel dock is 200 miles away, so they haul four jerry cans — one full-size, three minis — less than a mile to a gas station using a heavy-duty 250-pound-rated cart.9:19 Extreme dry heat in the Baja summer is a recurring complaint.11:45 The second leg to Las Rocas Anchorage near Isla Coronado involves experimenting with lure depth for dorado — switching from a sinking lure to a floating hot pink squid, since dorado run 0–20 feet deep — while motor-sailing at 4–5 knots.13:58 A second storm forces them to drop sails and motor the final half-mile to anchor just ahead of heavy rain.15:10
