From Zihuatanejo to Huatulco

This big caramaran takes tourists out on cruises. This on is covered in red and white balloons for Valentines Day.
We left Zihuatanejo on 16th of February and sailed for 4 x 24 hours along the coast to Huatulco ( pronounce Watulco).
The winds were light and we had a great time.


We were visited by lots dolphins. In the night it looked as if they were swimming in millions of stars which was phosphorecent plankton.






The weather is warm and balmy with light winds. Clothes are a bit of a pain!
Here I am sitting in the cockpit under the beminy ( cockpit cover) eating a pear.

The AIS = Automatic Identification System, shows that we are near collition with a tanker.

The tanker passed 0.5 Mile tostarboard.

Navigation instruments reading.
