Our friends Ralph and Helen of the SeaWind Catamaran, Moondrifter, arrived in March, and joined us for cocktails at the Costa Baja Country Club which overlooks all of La Paz Bay, and has the best sunsets in Baja (see the photo in previous post) Ralph and Helen joined us for dinner at two of the marina restaurants before heading north to San Carlos, and then a brief trip to their home in Wickenburg, 
Arizona. They returned to the Sea of Cortez in April and we met again in Puerto Escondido at Loretofest. The repairs we made to the dingy in 2011 did not hold over the summer, so we had Baja Inflatables replace the rub rail, fix some of the leaks and repair the leak in our ocean view plastic bottom. After 3 tries, we used marine tex to hold the platic in place and in the photo, Linda is applying 5200 to the
inside of the dingy. It all worked well this season, and we were able to use the ocean view to show the grandkids the fish in the clear waters of the bay. I put our new Honda 2 horse outboard on the dingy in preparation for the arrival of our daughter Cat and her two kids, Cooper and Parker. We ended up leaving the 2 horse on the dingy for the whole season, and finally put the 15 horse on in San Carlos to dive and snorkel the nearby coves.
