What this video covers
The crew of the 33-foot sailboat Sea Dream of Clyde sails north along the Baja California coast from La Paz to Puerto Escondido. During the transit, they navigate through the Gulf of California, anchoring at Honeymoon Cove on Isla Danzante. The crew encounters challenging sailing conditions, including steep six-foot seas and 30-knot gales, requiring frequent reefing of the sails. While anchored, the crew observes local wildlife, including dolphins and pelicans, and attempts a failed rescue of a stranded dolphin. Upon reaching Puerto Escondido, the owner repairs a malfunctioning roller-furling Genoa by epoxying a damaged drum assembly component with Marine-Tex. The crew also rents a car to visit the San Javier Mission in the mountains near Loreto. The trip concludes with a guest departure from the local airport.
