The owners of the 38-foot sailboat *Holo Holo* navigated a multi-leg journey across the Sea of Cortez without an engine after a transmission failure.1:31 Diagnosing a worn forward thrust washer, the crew rejected a tow offer and opted to sail the vessel to Guaymas, Mexico.1:17 They developed a strategy involving weather routing, contingency planning, and using a dinghy side-tied to the hull for maneuvering in and out of anchorages.

Departing from an anchorage near San Ispec, the crew attempted to leave under sail but resorted to side-tying the dinghy after failing to maneuver the boat in reverse due to prop walk.8:26 They motored six hours to reach the Bay of Domingo.10:09 The following day, they navigated to Punta Chivato, a trip requiring a high-stakes transition from side-tying to sailing as they cleared a point and encountered heavy swells.11:32 The crew reached speeds of 11 knots while tacking to reach the anchorage before the wind died.15:16 Careful planning and reliance on the dinghy for low-wind maneuvers enabled the transit.
