We Say, “The More the Merrier”

Here at Baja Ha-Ha World Headquarters, our attitude toward our Mexico rally has always been "the more the merrier." We think our 750-mile, San Diego-to-Cabo San Lucas cruise is so much fun, and provides such a great introduction to the cruising life, that we hate to turn away anyone simply because they missed the official entry deadline (which was September 10).

So if you still want to get in on the fun, it’s not too late. The deadline has been extended until Monday night, September 26, at midnight, and it only takes a few minutes to complete the online registration process. After that it may still be possible to get in, but you may have to bribe the Rally Committee with a couple of cases of Negra Modelo — your boat name may not make it onto the official event t-shirts and your bios may not make it into the event program, but you’ll still enjoy all other fleet benefits.

By the way, we’ve heard from a variety of entrants who are working their way down the coast from B.C. and the Pacific Northwest who report being thrilled with the 50% discount at Almar Marinas (a longtime sponsor). With a typical savings of $30/night, the overall benefit might even cover the entire rally entry fee.
