Journal Entry – Saturday, February 12, 2005 – Tenacatita 19° 18N 104° 50 W

Author: Scott and Pam

We had originally planned to stop in Careyes, but we passed by at night. Since we don’t go into anchorages or marinas at night, we went to plan B and headed for Tenacatita. We dropped the hook at 12:30 pm on the south edge of the anchorage; we generally like to make up the fringe when we first arrive at a new anchorage. The number of boats in the anchorage that came into view during our approach amazed us, I started out by seeing ten and by the time we were in the anchorage I counted 40, we had heard it was a popular spot. Just after arriving we heard our friends on Stargazer call on the radio as they approached the anchorage. We gave them a call and they came by to say hello once they were settled. They had been hanging out in the area for the past month, they were full of scoop. We went to shore with them, found a cold cervaza at that palapa and watched the lively game of volleyball in progress. Back on the boat we settled into the anchorage life with a shower in the cockpit and spaghetti with red sauce and clams for dinner.
