We finally make the mainland of Mexico... When we had the boat down in 2008 we never left the Sea of Cortez... this trip we finally make the crossing. I don't know what I was so afraid of in 2008, it was easy peasy... 2 calm nights and a glassy calm day....
We leave Mazatlán and head further south along the coast of mainland Mexico to San Blas and Mantechen bay where we hire a ponga and travel deep in the jungles in the search for crocodiles.
Just stay in the boat!!!!
