Left Tuesday morning, 05/29/12 for San Carlos.  Seas were flat and calm again with minimal winds during the day.  We did spot many whales around us, but none close enough to get pictures.  Also saw a couple sharks, so that was cool--and some fishing boats headed north.  We were paralleling S/V Que Linda, also headed to San Carlos.  Around dusk the winds began to pick up so we raised the main and mizzen and picked up about a knot and a half on almost a beam reach.  Bill managed to stay awake till well past 4 am, when we were already in site of the mainland and San Carlos.  He took a brief nap and then we were into the Bahia and anchored by 8 am--just in time for the cruisers net.  It is so great to be back in San Carlos.  Now readying everything so we can put the old girl to bed for the summer.  Managed to get the genoa and mizzen down this morning.  Now securing supplies, and heading to a nap--Billy Bob is fading fast!
