Acest episod începe cu o dimineață excepțional de agitată. Condițiile s-au schimbat complet peste noapte și ne legănăm și ne rostogolim atât de mult încât prietenul nostru, One Life, poate vedea chila Calico Skies! Ne hotărâm să punem o ancoră de pupa care să ne ajute să ne liniștim, dar mai întâi trebuie să scoatem toată vopseaua de jos cu care am navigat din dulapul nostru cu vele din babord. Odată ce recuperăm ancora, prietenul nostru Gary o ridică cu barca lui pentru a o scoate la drum pentru noi. Ne mișcăm atât de mult încât ar fi foarte dificil să punem barca înăuntru, iar lansa lui OneLife a fost mai accesibilă fiind la șold și gata să coboare cu driză. După ce punem ancora pupa, mișcarea este redusă substanțial și ne putem relua rutina de dimineață. Dintr-o dată, fulgerăm spre seară și Bill explică că Grace a părăsit Calico Skies și a plecat pe sv Delos pentru a ajuta. În ultimele două zile, Karin s-a îmbolnăvit din ce în ce mai mult și au decis să se îndrepte spre cel mai apropiat oraș, la 50 de mile distanță. Fără să știe când va avea loc o reuniune în cele din urmă, Grace a ales să urce în ultimul moment, deoarece Brian naviga singur și era părinte. Pe Delos, pilotul automat pleacă devreme, iar Brian și Grace se îndreaptă spre oraș. Între timp, Bill navighează singur pe Calico Skies, mergând mai încet decât Delos și întotdeauna cu o zi în urmă. El reușește să piloteze Spinnaker-ul singur adaptându-și tactica obișnuită pentru ridicarea vela și este tratat în condiții plăcute. Pe Delos, o ducem pe Kazza la doctor și ea rămâne pe insulă pentru tratament în timp ce Grace urmărește Sierra. După 4 zile, Bill și Grace se reunesc în Honeymoon Cove, chiar la sud de oraș, cu doctorul. Kazza este pe cale de recuperare. Ne trezim în cel mai frumos punct de ancorare în care am stat până acum în Marea Cortez și suntem tratați cu o dimineață absolut splendidă în prima noastră zi înapoi împreună, înconjurați de stânci superbe și apă turcoaz adânc, incredibil de limpede.

Just missed showing me anchored there at Agua Verde. I was on the west anchorage when you and One Life rolled in there. The day or two before I watched Delos sail on by.
So nice of Grace to help Brian. Another very good video. Thanks.
The bees are looking for fresh water, and ur right their drowning. What an absolutely crap anchorage 😁😂🤣gotta remember ur boats are really heavy.
The Hot Sauce is key ..I put that shit on everything. Bill makin do ….
Brilllllliant cinematic episode! Solo spinnaker- well done Bill. Grace to the rescue that was cool. Glad Kaza is better.
Thanks for sharing 👍
Wow, great video
Thanks for sharing
Sail on 😀
Two things: Grace, awesome that you were there to help out – good on you for going! And this area that you found towards the end – where you reunited – is beautiful. Great time lapse shots here.
The camera quality was fantastic, so clear. Beautiful locations. Damn bees…..Poor bees.
👍👍👍
It was good to watch you guys, and also that you helped when Kazza was sick. It was good to see the swell solution and the flying of the spinnaker solo. I have tried to subscribe but keep getting Google Video Quality Report in another window.
Beautiful all around! Sierra's voice is so cute! Glad to hear that Karin is doing better.
I really think that a flopper-stopper is a must-have for a monohull. I bet even on a calm day, you'd find the dampened motion to be more comfortable.
👍⛵🎣💯
Eat some ginger
Ginger will help that with you seasickness
Ginger root is good for seasickness I eat it all the time you get it at the grocery store ginger root
FLORIDA 🏖️⛱️💯

The Sea of Cortez looks beautiful!
I'm a master beekeeper and a sailor.
The bees are not gonna bother you so freaking out about them it's not gonna be worthy of your energy. They're looking for fresh water to drink!
If you put out a container with some pebbles or some marbles or some shells in it; that they can crawl over to get some water and not drowned, they'll grab some water and go home.
The bees are sticking around in the evening because they can smell the water and then it gets too cold below 65 and they die at night.
Please just give the bees a drink it some fresh water!!
Gary looks like Cruiser version of Aaron Rodgers, haha.
That’s so cool nugget knows the shape of our beautiful Sabre 36.
Last time I was in Honeymoon Cove it had the worst bee swarms in the Sea of Cortez. I guess it changes day to day. But isn't it an amazing place to go cruising?
The bee’s are dehydrated. Put alittile fresh water out for them.
That’s a lot of rollin. One of the reasons I want a catamaran. So nice to see a community all help each other out!
Does anyone down there know how to make or use a rocket stopper
Come on
So awesome of you to help out! Also, how does your hair always look so fantastic?!
I hate to complain but It is so hard to understand you when you talk so fast. I’m sure it is my problem and maybe there are some other older folks like me who would enjoy it more if we weren’t frustrated.
Loved the music at the end
Merry Christmas all the best for the new year.
Oh, you guys – OMG, the rocking – As a marine biologist, I was a breakfast-o'er-the-side sailor until a sage professor offered me Bonine – (US, over the counter; Meclizine HCl) (Meclozine, AntiVert, other names around the world) This is not medical advice, check with your doctor: This acts in 30 minutes taken in advance, or if you are already seasick, it transfers via mouth tissues (put it under your tongue) – If you are tossing your cookies, it still works – My heart goes out to all who endure that rocking – That and cross-hatch competing swells are the worst – As a sufferer, I learned, "First, you're afraid you're going to die – Then you're afraid you're not" – And Bill, your solo deploy was perfection – not too shabby is right – And all that while managing cameras for us – splendid – And ++ experience-envy: Those anchorages look fantastic, like something we all imagine, but very few ever see
RIP Naomi Terlini
Hey guys, I Think I just booked Jan 10 – who knows in Penasco! Hope your there Still?… Captn. Ray on the WAY! lol… this could get Emense!…
🥰
So much for that engineering degree.. Common sense isn’t so common these days… But hey! Money can fix stupid I guess…..
Honeymoon Cove is also one of my favorites – quintessential Sea of Cortez anchorage. I had a whale under the paddle board there about a month ago. Try El Cardoncito at Isla Partida on your way south, stern anchor in about 15', it is also very special.
Flopper stoppers held down by anchors or weight. And Sturgeon!
Better replace our busted stern anchor.. nice one B&G!
