Smart move in my opinion. I contemplated getting our boat in the Washington or Oregon but didn't like the idea of sailing south on our own. Best of luck.
The rally to San Diego is a good idea. I suggest joining the Baja one too. Will be a great way to go through your first foreign checkin/customs etc. will have plenty of resource/help with the process for your first time.
We are playing the move from San Diego to Mexico by ear. We are hoping our experience will be much greater by the time we reach San Diego, so we are considering doing the next trip ourselves. I know the Baha will be a much larger rally so we just want to wait and see. Our minds are not made up yet..
That should be a great sail, you have the boat that will care for you ! I'm in San Diego Coronado Island if you need contacts here feel free to message me . If you need some time off the boat when you arrive I have room. Steve
That is absolutely true, but if we can choose a day that wont make bringing the boat back into the marina a nightmare, then we are ok to wait for a better day.

Great sailing ⛵️ video! Mike from Missouri
Looking forward to seeing you two out on the water!
Sounds awesome. Can't wait to see the videos of the west coast trip.
I’m excited to see how this works out for you. Should be fun!

Wow Steve, I really appreciate that, I will definitely keep that in mind. Thanks!
The same wind blows out there, Just no island to hop behind or bay to anchor in.
