After departing La Paz, the crew of Into the Mystic sailed to Isla Partida and Isla San Francisco in the Sea of Cortez.0:40 While navigating 20-knot winds toward Isla San Francisco, the crew rigged a boom limiter line to prevent the boom from swinging violently in heavy following seas.2:11 They anchored in a cove at Isla San Francisco, initially struggling to find a secure spot due to rocky patches and depth changes, eventually settling in nine feet of water to minimize swell-induced rocking.8:41 The crew spent several days snorkeling, hiking the island’s mountain trails, and testing a dinghy motor that had been problematic since a recent theft.14:10 They shared the anchorage with a trawler named 5to1, whose captain had previously assisted them in La Paz.1:01 The experience highlighted the camaraderie among cruisers and the challenges of balancing different vessel types—sailing yachts versus trawlers—when planning passages and selecting anchorages.
