A "weather window" finally arrived for crossing the Bay of Tehuantapec, so many southbound boaters prepared for a departure from Huatulco. The sailboat "Effie", with whom we shared a dock, and subsequent passage, organized a bon voyage dock party, and our deck never tasted so good, as it was used for the potluck buffet table.
After our three day passage, we arrived at Bahia del Sol in El Salvador, and then the fun really started. To enter the bay, you must follow a panga over a sandbar at high tide. Inspiration draws slightly less than 7', and our depth sounder read 7'1" at one point.
Surfing the waves over the bar.
In a trough. Are we having fun yet?
Inside the bay.
