O que este vídeo aborda
A family cruise along Baja California's Sea of Cortez islands ends with an arrival at La Paz, navigating the commercial channel under mainsail alone.16:37 The passage covers Isla San Jose to Isla San Francisco — sought for its turquoise crescent beach — then continues down the west side of Espiritu Santo to anchor at Bahia San Gabriel, which the crew had entirely to themselves.13:24 Sail trim details include applying Cunningham tension after a downwind leg, rotating the mast on the Farrier 39 trimaran to unlock the front third of the sail's drive, and picking up nearly a knot of boat speed immediately after doing so.10:58 The Melagic Autopilot handles most of the steering; each heading adjustment registers as two degrees per click.17:08 A paddle board came untied overnight at Bahia San Gabriel and blew onto the beach — recoverable only because the wind stayed westerly.14:36 Entering La Paz, the crew slows to three knots to yield to a ferry, passes the Pemex plant, Berkovich Boatyard, and Costa Baja Marina, and notes that the commercial port is where immigration paperwork and the boat's temporary import permit are processed.16:11 The marina had no space, so the crew anchored.17:42
