Boobies!

Boobies!

 

Yea, gotchya, although this is a life of less or no clothes while sailing, this is about Isla Isabel, an island off the coast of Mexico. After we left La Paz we went to Mazatlan for a few days. We anchored in the harbor off old Mazatlan. It was nice there except for the smell, there is a shit treatment plant right by the anchorage and when the wind is right (and it usually is) the smell will sour your stomach. While there we met John on TACMAN, while on the walk into town. He joined us and showed us around a bit and we had breakfast while he gave us the low down on the place. John was a great guy with quite a few stories over drinks the next couple of days.

 

After leaving Mazatlan, we headed to Isla Isabel, an island off the coast that is known as the golpogose of Mexico. Here there are iguanas, friget birds, and many other birds I don't know what to call...oh, and boobies. Brown boogie and the blue footed boogie. We had a few boobies hitch a ride with us along the way, they were brown boobies I think. I've never said boobies or seen so many boobies outside of the occasional strip club (picture me giggling like a 12 year old boy when I say boobies).

 

 

We stayed here a few days, it's kind of a tough anchorage and if the weather changes on you there can be some exciting times. While the weather was good, we didn't want to push our luck and we wanted to get to a place that a few people raved about as being the hidden gem of mainland Mexico, San Blas, as in the poem The Bells of San Blas.
