And they’re off!

We had fantastic weather for the the start of the Baja. Though the air was warm, the winds were a little light. The Fleet paraded through San Diego Bay, with the fire boat and the TV crews there to meet us. With 330NM to go on the first leg, there wasn’t a lot of jostling for position at the start line, instead we had a rolling start with most people under power, slowly leaving San Diego behind us and passing between the Coronado Islands on our way south.
