Greetings From Tenacatita, Mexico
The warm Mexico sailing season continues to gather the cruising tribe for many gatherings along the coastline. Robert and Virginia Gleser are in their 26th season aboard their Islander Freeport 40, Harmony.
Virginia sent a quick update from the coast: “Here’s a picture of the class of 2026 after the Tenacatita Romp, a regatta around the bay, a once-a-year race that had 10 boats participating this time. Lots of fun was had by all with SV Wings winning again. Tenacatita and its fine weather, warm water, and gorgeous scenery have been an anchorage that sailors return to for years during the cool winter months. A welcoming, supportive community spontaneously takes over, and once again the morning net is on the air. Bocce ball games are on the beach; swims to shore and walks down the lovely beach with friends keep everyone fit. There were more kid boats than ever this year and they love surfing on the gentle break to hone their surfing skills. The mayor’s Friday night raft-up is happening again tonight, allowing everyone to introduce themselves and share in the appetizers that the chefs of the fleet bring. It’s a special, welcoming place.”
The Glesers shared their 25-year cruising story in the December 2024 Changes in Latitudes. If you’re ready to go, the Baja Ha-Ha is ready for you: www.baja-haha.com.
