SAILING INTO AN NEW YEAR!

Weighed anchor at 4:30 and are underway towards Isla Isabella, 85 miles South east from here.
Our location at present is:     23 degrees 7 minutes degrees North          106 degrees 23 minutes West
The weather is very calm.  Small swell and calm with little wind.  We look forward to the sunrise and glorious day ahead of us.  Hopefully the wind will pickup so we can sail.  Right now we are motoring  at 5 knots and making water.  All is well..............I am drinking Ginger tea and the Captain is on his second coffee.

Check us out on the map and have a little navigation study -with your kids or spouse!!
Prayers are always welcome and much appreciate.    

Próspero Felize y un ~ o Nuevo Ano!!!!!

The Captain and First Mate............back at Sea

MEMORIES……….are made of this!
