We woke to wind, shocker. But still comfortable excluding the constant howl. Breakfast and then the anchor was raised for the short motor down to Punta Colorada with a planned either day stop or anchorage for the night. We had the jib out to help and also gave the starboard engine a blowout (full power to blow out carbon that builds up when running at low RPMs). From there is was just a mellow day on the water until get got to Colorada to find another boat was already there. Blerg. It is a small anchorage and rather than crowd the other boat for a few hours we decided to plug on to Puerto Escondido.
We made our way around Isla Dazante and into the harbor pushing against a 1.5 knot current. Soon enough were on a mooring ball. In the afternoon we headed in for some internet and laundry. We got 50% of that accomplished, for some reason the internet was extremely slow. Oh well, I have cell coverage so I could call home and check all of the critical things. Then back to the boat before coming to shore for a pizza dinner!
