A Westerly Yachts Ltd. Discus 33, Sea Dream of Clyde, navigates the Gulf of California near Loreto, Baja, during the winter season. While attempting a 25-mile passage from Bahia Balandria on Isla Carmen toward San Juanico, the crew encounters rapidly deteriorating conditions. Winds shift from light and variable to a strong northerly, creating steep, short-interval seas that significantly impede progress. Faced with a forecast for gale-force winds and the risk of entering the reef-strewn San Juanico anchorage in darkness, the crew decides to turn back 7 miles from their destination. They return to Isla Coronados to wait out the weather. The crew utilizes a Hydrovane for self-steering during the transit and successfully anchors at Isla Coronados without using the engine.10:58 During the subsequent multi-day wait for the norte to subside, they hike the island’s volcanic trails.14:16 The experience highlights the necessity of monitoring weather windows in the Gulf of California, where nortes frequently generate high winds and uncomfortable sea states that can force a change in plans.16:37
