We were clear of the dock at 6:15 am and began the last long leg of the trip. The morning skies were slightly hazy, the seas were flat calm and the temperature was warm as we set out.
We saw several large rays feeding at the surface all around the boat. There were several dolphins and Gale saw something quite large come to the surface that was probably a whale. The sunrise was one of the more beautiful ones we’ve seen. It didn’t take long for Gale and Craig to get the fishing lines out.
As we motored past San Jose Los Cabos and Cabos San Lucas, collectively known as Cabo,
we were treated to seeing large schools of stingrays swimming about six feet under the surface with their wings shimmering in the sunlight. Occasionally, one or two of the rays would jump completely out of the water! The scenery was interesting with the rugged cliffs covered by many large hotels, resorts and residences.
Our calm seas turned extremely rough towards early evening and into the night. We were tossed about rather severely for the hours before midnight. By the time Gale was up for the 2 am watch, we had found calmer seas once again.
