This is one of my favorite episodes because it places us in the cultural context of the Mexico that you are traversing in your little boat. I love your videos which are so personal. Even though your not sailing, you’ve given me a glimpse of a wonderful world.
Since almost three years ago I visited for the first time Puerto San Carlos, because my fiancé lives there, I was born and live in Mexico City and I met my fiancé in Vancouver as you can see I’m use to live in big cities and I was concerned about living in San Carlos because for me is so tiny compared to Mexico city but really San Carlos took my heart and has become my home. i’m about to moving there in few months and I cannot be happier
Hi Guys, Another great video!! I have been in Mag Bay many times but never to Pt. San Carlos, I had no idea it was that big. Next time I will be sure and go there. 10 thumbs up. Cheers, Stu & Maggie SY Sea Peace
A truly fascinating set of interviews. I don't speak (more than 50 words of) Spanish but I think I get a sense of what was said. Very important topics discussed. Well done.
This has been your best episode yet! You’ve set the bar. This episode will help aspiring cruisers understand the importance of connecting. This was immersive and empathetic. You just shifted gears from your story to the story in which you find yourselves. More of this, please. If you continue to document your connection like this, the sky’s the limit. I really need to freshen up my Spanish language skills. Thanks for the inspiration.
Once again, your own perspective of weaving personal interviews into the fabric of your video reinforces the overall impact of your unique storytelling style. Well done.......as usual!
that was really good the interviews with the people on how they are trying to keep the bay clean and keep providing is great . i was wondering are they going to try and get ride of plastic bag use or all plastic, that seams to be the problem even here in place Phinney Bay WA .
Stayed in San Carlos for a couple of weeks in 1979. On a sail boat waiting for the hurricane season to finish before heading south. Great town very small the port caption would bring us the weather report . Before Sat nav and weather stations an old teletype print out.
This was a great episode! I always wonder what day-to-day life is really like in the places I visit, so it's fun to see you speak with some of the people of Puerto San Carlos. Very nice!
Thanks mate, so much to show and sometimes it is very easy to forget the places we visit are homes and a daily life that goes on with or without tourism.
Stock up on the best, largest (3 to a kilo) blue crabs I've ever seen or heard of... That is if they haven't been fished out by now. I'm surprised and heartened by your love for this very out of the way destination.
We swung through San Carlos aboard sv Concordia on Dec. 30 and 31, 3017. Great location to clear into Mexico, btw. We met George - who he said was just one of five in the town who spoke fluent English (he professed to helping you out during the dingy caper). Nice guy, though your interviews tend to show there are more than five. We weren’t there long enough to gather your appreciation of the town you have. However, we befriended Guerro, one of two taxi drivers on the sign at the dock. He became our “fixer” when we found a leak on the hose leaving the raw water pump and talked the owner of the hardware store to reopen on New Year’s Day. Felt bad I only needed $10 of material, but we spent enough there the prior day. It was a great example of a caring community. Fair winds. PS - Perplexed why you’re headed north after mentioning ground tackle for southern ports.
I will be bashing my boat to Portland beginning in May. I'm curious about the depth of the channel from San Carlos north on the inside. What is the draught of Veruna?. Mine is approx. 7'5"
I just saw a video on San Carlos Calif but oh it was in Sonora I want baja.i am from San Carlos Calif originally now I live in Seattle hate it so I know a little Spanish but I see you are speaking English so this is the San Carlos I want to live in not Sonora
I've loved your videos but finally I just have to ask - Sailing in this same area in one country for so long even now going back to the same towns and places again. Do you want to or plan to visit other lands down the coast thru central America, cross the Pacific or thru the canal to the Carribean. What are your future plans please. Thanks
WHAT HAPPENED TO SANDRA?? last week you had her working for you, now she's gone? was she not fast enough? swimming with the fishes, huh? you people will stop at nothing..... cool vid, nice town, love the excited puppy! but seriously....if you're gonna let people disappear, don't show them in your videos?! that's the most basic mafia 101...

El güerito,como siempre quiso mucho a nuestro puerto,hablando siempre bien del lugar que eligió para vivir. Nuestro bello puerto 😍
Que tal ballenas este 2023? Se ven por hay?
O, buen lugar cercas de San Carlos para verlos.
Krispin un gran señor trabajador y orgulloso de puerto San Carlos.
Love this. I lived there in 2000 a the School for Field Studies (which doesn't exist anymore). Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for sharing. I learned a lot about San Carlos. It’s a wonderful small town.
Amazing I met Crispín in Puerto San Carlos in 2003 . I remember he was a really nice guy
This is one of my favorite episodes because it places us in the cultural context of the Mexico that you are traversing in your little boat. I love your videos which are so personal. Even though your not sailing, you’ve given me a glimpse of a wonderful world.
We love how you show the real town. We might want to live there someday. Our 6-year-old girl loved the festival footage.

I love the interviews with the local people!!! Keep those coming!!
It's cool that you gave us a look at the life of the locals ashore. Not many sailing channels do that.
So much to show and it is hard to cover it all and not get sidetracked, we think this was needed and it is good to hear you enjoyed it.
It’s crazy to see how many people know my parents hometown I go here once a year and it’s one of my favorite places honestly
We love it - really is a special place! Hope it stays that way :)
Hi Guys, Another great video!! I have been in Mag Bay many times but never to Pt. San Carlos, I had no idea it was that big. Next time I will be sure and go there. 10 thumbs up. Cheers, Stu & Maggie SY Sea Peace

Thanks for telling this story about the ecotourism and how they are working at protecting the seas. Great video.

You mean the fish cannery with a fish guts dryer.

This was a very cool episode. I really appreciate the look into Puerto San Carlos. I can see why you went back.

I wish I could hit the thumbs up button more than once. Great episode! hope you guys continue to do more of this type of video.

Craig Moyle , well you must be in a Time machine. LOL
Awsome you guys
Good interviews.
Bien hecho!
Most enjoyable . thanx ;-)
I will be bashing my boat to Portland beginning in May. I'm curious about the depth of the channel from San Carlos north on the inside. What is the draught of Veruna?. Mine is approx. 7'5"
Large tuna boats navigate past San Carlos to Puerto Lopez Mateos, but the bar exits north would be a bad idea for you .
I just saw a video on San Carlos Calif but oh it was in Sonora I want baja.i am from San Carlos Calif originally now I live in Seattle hate it so I know a little Spanish but I see you are speaking English so this is the San Carlos I want to live in not Sonora
I wonder if that was a FAD, or fish attraction device that works like a floating reef.
I've loved your videos but finally I just have to ask - Sailing in this same area in one country for so long even now going back to the same towns and places again.
Do you want to or plan to visit other lands down the coast thru central America, cross the Pacific or thru the canal to the Carribean. What are your future plans please. Thanks
Melvin Curtice , I was thinking the same thing.
Is there a McDonalds in San Carlos?
I am from San Carlos calif commercial fisherman boring sea my new home will be the Mexican sancarlos I think asia is not happening
I really thought you gave a "voice" to Puerto San Carlos when you spoke to the men..no interviews with women :-(
WHAT HAPPENED TO SANDRA??
last week you had her working for you, now she's gone? was she not fast enough? swimming with the fishes, huh?
you people will stop at nothing.....
cool vid, nice town, love the excited puppy! but seriously....if you're gonna let people disappear, don't show them in your videos?! that's the most basic mafia 101...
