Hi
Can anyone who's been up that way describe the area?
Hoges in WA

I spent a few weeks up there day sailing. I started at Peurto Penasco.
It was the first spot south of AZ and on the SOC. Huge wide bay (1.5
miles) that was about 12' deep. When the tide went out you needed
binoculars to see the water. There was the rich gringo gavacho trailer
parks then there was a hippy ex pat sort place too. And of course some
guy named Rojo who had a few boats and ran a SSB station. All the
local polica looked the other way in regards to Red and his "marina'
opreation. But that was 1982 and my yacht was a 15' sprit rigged
sailing dory. oh, and my aussi dog and a hot 21 year old 6'
girlfriend. Did a lot of day sailing down the beach. ate rock
oysters, speared fished, and copulated a plenty.

Oh, local knowledge...... shallow, sand, dry and hot, little water, no
wind and then too much for a sailing dory. If you dont have a flat
bottom center board for get it.
