What ever guide book you plan on using, take time to experiment with
Google Earth. This summer Google uploaded high res images for most of
the trip you are wanting to make.

Here is a link to our website on a trip we started last year, our boat
is currently in Mazatlan: http://www.goreads.com/Travel%20Log.htm

If you download the Google .KMZ file on our web page (after you have
installed Google Earth) it will show you several good anchorages. You
can then save the map images to your computer, or send the .jpg images
to a photo shop and then you will have 4x6 high res color images of all
the places you would like to possibly anchor. I have also included
info on a couple of places to get fuel and what to expect.

Take lots of single dollar bills, be prepaired to pay for your fuel in
cash in the smaller towns.
There are internet cafe's a plenty, even in the small dusty villages.
Cabo is like visiting Vegas. The plus is they have a Cosco. You can
anchor outside of the marina for free and then take your dingy into the
marina for only $2.
If you take a fishing pole, learn about the Mexico law/fees for fishing
equipment.
