Mmmmmm, Beer! I’m so jealous. Congratulations on living the dream! I learned of your travels about a month before your departure from SF & wish I could have met the two of you before you left. I live with a guy that Matt worked with through WS…his name is Rad. So, he told me of your plans about 6 months after i told him that I was gonna try to buy a boat and sail away. I guess it’s one of those times in life when you make a decision, and from then on, all these signs pop-up. things you notice about places and overheard conversations about things you’ve been thinking about non-stop. Syzygy’s travels give me hope that i can make my dream come true & perhaps our paths will cross. I’m so happy for you to be starting your journey. I’ve donated some drink $ & look forward to following along.

We hope you enjoy your cruising in Mexico. Liability insurance is not a scam, but a requirement by the Mexican Government for visiting yachts. Two-hundred ten dollars is about what the same insurance would have cost you in the U.S. (and you are also correct, most marinas do require tenants to have liability insurance with the marina as the “additional insured”). It is unlikely that you’ll ever need your liability insurance, but hey, it’s a fairly inexpensive requirement in light of all the other expenses you’ve spent on outfitting your fine yacht. We sure after a couple of more weeks in Mexico, this experience will seem insignificant and you’ll be overwhelmed with the peace, beauty and freedom of your cruise. Fair winds and we hope to read more of your adventures. We’ll be down south again in November and perhaps we’ll cross wakes.
