Blue Pearl navigates the Mulegé River in Baja California Sur, Mexico, using high tide to avoid the boulder-strewn entrance that caused previous dinghy propeller damage.1:38 After visiting friends in Mulegé, the crew attempts to reach Isla San Marcos but diverts to Punta Chivato due to 26-knot winds and heavy hobby-horsing.6:21 The vessel later completes a 55-nautical-mile crossing of the Sea of Cortez from Isla Tortuga to San Carlos on the Mexican mainland.8:35 During the crossing, the crew encounters broadside swells and fickle winds, necessitating a mix of sailing and motoring.8:51 Upon arrival in San Carlos, the crew secures a mooring ball with assistance from a friend, as the marina lacks slip space for their vessel’s size and bowsprit configuration.14:11 Water temperatures in the region dropped from 90 degrees to 79 degrees over three weeks.10:33 The crew utilizes Navionics to identify suitable anchoring depths and locations throughout the transit.1:03
