(snuggling the shrimp boats in water)
As friends go? We are suffering Comodoro high wind speeds and water snow on a wintry day. In fact we can not complain, we are in Nautical Spore passing first with good people, something we have in Argentina almost everywhere, you just need to leave to meet her. If I remember the last thing I wrote was to Shrimps and talked about the wind? of course, has blown every day until Commodore. Spring is well in Patagonia, windy. I have recommended Shrimp, well, now that I can navigate safely say that the best of Chubut is the stretch Union Beach - Bahia Bustamante, breathtaking coastal scenery and plenty of marine life.
take this opportunity to thank the truck Dominguez, Alicia, Ari and Leah Stamina for us at home while waiting conditions for sailing. With them I spent my birthday with Lorenzo, a Frenchman who was alone on his boat and it gives us two nights sleeping in Caleta Sara.
(Caleta Sara, an amazing place like many others in the area)
(wig seen the boat in Caleta Sara Lawrence)
what came after it became increasingly Shrimp better. Based on recommendations from the truck and Lorenzo Lions face coming to the island that day to Caleta Hornos with a west wind raging.

(Many caves interesting to see at high tide)
Once inside of the Cove is a different story and you just go through the landscape and incoming tide ... a journey of no return, a unique place. Never miss the salami that paint the rocks to leave your name, stupid, do not.
(A pure hang entering the cove beach)
Luckily Cabo Two bays are already booking. Another interesting place is the island with his old Tova seaweed farm camp and the old lighthouse or beacon is not working, and is part of history with over 60 years of being there perky. Yet where is the pipe passing acetylene gas as fuel for lighting.
(hard to forget those sunsets in Patagonia)
important thing to consider in the area for sailing in bird breeding season; Just for November start laying eggs and it is important walk near the nests of penguins, petrels and cormorants because the scare of the nest immediately come into action hairy, never missing piches and voracious gulls attacking the nest and eating the eggs. The hard part is putting the Petrel one egg and one egg is put into the next cycle or until two cycles later in time. Ta complicated this bug because it is played over slow die hooked on the hooks of longline fishing boats. Albatrosses and Petrels have the same, long lines with baited hooks floating frozen until mid-water where these birds can dive in question. Well, hopefully the INIDEP and biologists of the world to find solutions. I think experimenting with thawed bait and others but do not know too much about the results.
(With friends Visser, Bruno's ranch)
Back to navigation Tafford tip traveled, Bay Bustamante, Pedral of hell (so named by us) and finally Puerto Visser Comodoro Rivadavia. We could not see the driver who killed 40 dolphins stranded stranding or above the 140 but they said it is amazing to see lots and lots of bones piled up.
This tour has been the best of the province and hundreds of dive sites, pristine waters, islands everywhere, caves, possibilities for rockhopping and break the kayak, a bit of everything.
Sometimes the weather can ruin or hide the beauty of a place and you spend long. That happened to us in the Lions island also has a lighthouse and a lot of history.
On the technical or difficult the navigation is like everything, if conditions are good the navigation is safe with plenty of places to stop, if weather conditions are bad, or the wind, currents tidal and coastal formations often form deep and big waves crashing against rocks and ripples moved well. Everything you read on our site varies, it will depend on the weather, take it as a reference and then get together to exchange experiences. We
coming little by little in the vast Gulf of San Jorge and almost half are Commodore and the provincial boundary from Rada Tilly. We're going to Santa Cruz, penultimate province of our tour with longer distances between ports. Remaining 1800 km of travel and a lot to learn. At the moment I can not think about anything else because it is so much information processed per day we need to talk to the kids to remember the stories or look at photos and say ... ah! I was reminded of this .. and that.
I follow in a couple of days from Caleta Olivia with more images of the last stage and a story you save it for later and I just remembered.
Going once. Turns out we to make hauling the kayak we took the cover back and lift one side. And are three times that I forget the lid open and supported by the base but I remember just before entering the sea. Leaving the Island Tova did the same as always.
(Cause of the crash, Cormorants on the rocks emerging)
I object to get the cover because I hang myself looking at the bugs and never put the lid but I must confess that it is the best way to bring boat. That day at sea began to feel heavy and sunk the boat back until I saw my shoes floating beside me. I started yelling at the kids for me to shrink the hatch but the waves came and filled with water tight again. The worst of the situation, jacket and sleeping bag wet with salt water, not dry for a while. In mojo actually all a disaster. There was no danger of collapse because the air bags are sealed and never opened the cockpit, but had to return to the island and return to empty everything and navigation. In the afternoon the wind and the sun dried everything, but the situation was desperate to see my stuff floating in the sea. Council does not set up, bad and causes accidents. Never again I forget to close the lid, whether they know it.
(anecdote to the next, arrived by helicopter Prefecture)
another, we have spent hours collecting fishing floats are huge. The idea is to bring someone Tigre so get over there to me traveling about 20 bondi buoys. The cirujeo in Patagonia is fantastic. One day we walked 20 miles and we take water from a hydrate of soda siphons were scattered along the coast. Had gas and everything. Nature does not give you water but garbage from ships and cities do. Come, I remembered a few.
(Happy Birthday in sailing Lorenzo ... you are 31)
friends Next are others.
