The crew of the *Adventure Can't Wait* sailed 255 miles from Puerto Penasco to Santa Rosalia, Mexico, marking their longest passage to date.13:29 After replacing all standing rigging, the pair departed in calm conditions, motoring initially before encountering whales and dolphins in the Sea of Cortez.2:17 As they approached a five-mile-wide pinch point between islands, an 8-foot tidal swing against the northerly wind created steep, close-together waves.7:55 The crew struggled to reef the main sail in 20 to 25 knots of wind, resulting in boat speeds reaching 11 knots and heavy rolling.8:19 They maintained a double-reefed main with no headsail through the night, eventually reaching Santa Rosalia with an average speed of 5 knots.10:28 The vessel spent 44.5 hours under sail and 6.5 hours motoring.13:35 The passage confirmed the integrity of the new rigging under heavy load, though the crew noted that delaying reefing in building seas significantly increased the physical challenge of managing the boat.8:19
