Last leg of the trip: Cabo-La Paz

The team left anchorage around 9:00 PM and sailed under the stars to its next destination. They will stop in a small bay for lunch and to rest a little bit, then, around 1:00 AM, they will head to la Paz with an estimate time of arrival of 12:00PM noon on Monday.
They are currently motor sailing (engine+sails) strait into the a light wind, escorted by a whale...how cool is that?!

The Crew is returning to San Diego on Tuesday...we will post a few pictures next week.

And the result is....

1st in their category!! 

well done Team!

Tuesday November 1St:

 Sans Frontieres sailed down under spy with well established winds and arrived at Bahia Santa Maria on Monday, early morning. Since then they explored the bay, went for a 3 hour Hike to the top of the mountain to take pictures that will be posted as soon as they have an efficient internet connection.
Tonight is the Mexican reception in Santa Maria: fresh fish and Mexican food provided by the local people.
The Sailors have enjoyed warm waters and tropical weather but will pull anchor first thing tomorrow morning for the last leg of the Race: Bahia Santa Maria-Cabo San Lucas. Sans Frontieres seems to be in a good position in the race...stay tuned for the final score!
