Discover the Charm of Sausalito
A Final Day in the San Francisco Bay Area
Join us as we bid farewell to McCovey Cove and embrace the serene beauty of Sausalito & Richardson Bay for one last memorable day.
Exploring Sausalito
A Stroll Through Sausalito's Streets and Floating Homes
Walking through the picturesque streets of Sausalito, we were captivated by the charm and tranquility of this unique town. The floating homes, each with its own character and story, lined the bay, offering a glimpse into a lifestyle that is both fascinating and serene. Our exploration further down the bay revealed even more hidden gems, making our visit to Sausalito an enriching and delightful experience.
Baja Haha Seminar Insights
Preparing for the Journey South
Attending the Baja Haha seminar at the Spaudling boat yard in Sausalito was like finding treasure in a cereal box, packed with gems of wisdom about sailing south to Mexico. We dove into the thrilling logistics of our adventure, reaffirmed the understanding that checking into Mexico isn’t just a casual wave but requires some essential prep work, and discovered the secret handshake—also known as the TIP—that you must have before you can even think about entering the country with your pleasure craft. With over 100 boats in on the fun every year, it’s basically a floating fiesta out there!
Despite the allure of joining the fleet, we’ve decided to set sail a week or so ahead of the crowd. Our estimated date of departure from San Diego will be October 13th. This decision allows us to avoid the rush and enjoy a more tranquil journey. We’re eager to explore the Mexican coastline at our own pace, taking in the beauty and culture without the pressure of a large group.
Farewell to Friends
Saying goodbye to our friends travelling on SV Taj and SV Pacific Wren was a bittersweet moment. We’ve created some great memories during our short time together ‘Under the Bridge’, hangin at the Aquatic Park, exploring Chinatown and relaxing in Richardson Bay. As we part ways, we hold onto the hope that our paths will cross again in the future.
Until we meet again, we wish SV Taj and SV Pacific Wren fair winds and following seas. Our shared experiences have enriched our lives, and we eagerly anticipate the day we can once again sail side by side.
