Sally Lightfoot spent the 7 months between October and May circumnavigating the entire Baja peninsula.
 
Most of this voyage was done by water; the last leg home over land.
 
Following is a brief photo-essay of the highlights.

In San Diego we joined the Baja Ha-Ha fleet and celebrated Halloween a few days early.
Paul, Ray, Jared feeling "spiritual" ;-)

Sally - and 170 other Ha-Ha boats - had moderate wind and big swells the first few days.

The trimaran handled beautifully.

Bahia Tortuga, our first stop.  We were fast, and usually arrived early.  Here Ray is looking

for the party, while little Sally patiently awaits some company in the anchorage.

Still looking for the party as more boats arrive in Turtle Bay.  One boat didn't make it, after a

whale encounter sent it to the bottom.  Thankfully, our friends we're all rescued.

Finally!  A day long pot-luck beach party satiated Ray and many hundred other Ha-Ha'ers.
