December 20th, Isla San Francisco

Another Cormel (night wind from the south)
 

We moved last night from the North side of the bay to the south side. S/V Southern Cross also moved to the otherside of the bay last night, S/V Aka and another boat were already over on the south side.  Seahorse stuck it out and didn’t move over here until later in the afternoon.  They took Southern Crosses spot as they headed to La Paz, then S/V Whirlwind came in and a boat from Moorings a rental company from La Paz.  This guy dropped his anchor right over ours, he was just yards from us.  Brian told him about the Cormels and another one was expected, he was right inline with us and if he drags he will hit us.  He pretty much ignored Brain and stayed there, didn’t even pull back on his anchor when he dropped it.  We were not to happy, we took the dink (our dinghy) to seahorse and had a few drinks, aka came over and gave all of us fresh fish they had caught that day.  The moon was amazing!!  Suppose to be a eqlipse tonight, the moon is huge you can see it as if you are looking in a telescope…beautiful.  The moorings boat moved not to much further away, but a little better, we didn’t sleep real well, the cormel wasn’t as bad as the night before but it still blew pretty good.  Earlier in the day four of our boats were all pointed with our bows in, see the picture, this is very strange as usually we are all swinging the same direction.
