[Ep 18] Last Day in the USA! Sailing Off On Our International Sailing Adventure to Mexico
We’re finally leaving San Diego! After months of boat projects, delays, and anchor life, our engine is fixed and we’re ready to set sail for Mexico. In this episode, we run our final errands and prepare the boat for offshore sailing. We depart in the early morning darkness and make our first international sail south to Ensenada, which starts as a smooth sailing trip and then goes a bit sideways.
Join us as we cross the border and kick off our cruising life in Mexico.
⛵️ In this episode:
– Final preparations and errands in San Diego
– Offshore sail from San Diego to Ensenada
– Sunrise sailing
– Pulling into the Cruiseport Village Marina

SmoCo Sailing
We're Armand, Liya, and our doodle Pinot. In July 2024, we sailed off from Monterey, California aboard our sailboat Cosmo and began the biggest adventure of our lives. Since then, we've been sailing Mexico and beyond, sharing the real highs and lows of full-time cruising. From remote anchorages and incredible wildlife encounters to boat projects, spearfishing, weather, and everything that breaks in between. Our goal is simple: explore beautiful places, live life on our own terms, and share the journey honestly. So grab a drink, pull up a seat in the cockpit, and come sailing with us.
