2009 has been a complicated year for us. Some events we've been dealing with have been similar to some of what you've been dealing with. Not the cruising we'd expected this year. Sailing is like that sometimes.

We'll exit Maz as soon as we get a PSS system installed (11/9), some stainless steel work done, & a new spray shield completed. Plan is to cruise around the lower 1/3 of the Sea of Cortez, briefly rendezvousing w/ 2 other boats, then moving south to cross the T'pec mid-Feb. 2010. Or so. Not planning on going to your side of the hemisphere for a while tho - we'll see how Ecuador pans out for us this year. Trip to Galapagos may/may not be included. As always, it's a flabby concept.

What's cooking for next year for you guys?

(P.S. We hear Brendon will be leaving the barn some time this morning...)
