We had old sailing friends with us for the motor+beat back up to La Paz. I had forgotten how rowdy a day of beating in a mild 15 knots can be near the Baja side of the crossing. The boat did well. One winch handle went over the side and a bow roller retainer pin disappeared. Should have put lanyards on those pins back in 2002. We' ll be in this area and north in the Sea for the next couple months.
