A suppose you have a different opinion of what charted means! For us, and I think most others, if there are zero soundings of any kind across broad areas with entire islands and reefs missing from the "chart", we call that uncharted, or at least under-charted! I might call areas such as Benito mapped, but with no soundings within 1/2 mile of shore, not charted. But even that is a stretch as on land there are no elevation points recorded, with islets entirely missing! :)
I can assure you we were very much prepared with the best available charts, both electronic and paper. I'll wager a guess that you have not stopped by these particular areas, because if you had, you would understand what we're talking about rather than making assumptions of how prepared we were.
What charts are you using? I saw tons of rocks not shown on Navionics charts and only mentioned in guidebooks. Saw a superyacht just north of LA Paz with its bow sticking out of the water, I guess the captain was unprepared too... Where'd you get your accurate charts, Mermaid?

ONE. Day we can have a convoy of hope and sail boats around the world
Sailing for hope and love 💯%!
Wow! Isla San Benito was super good to you guys. What a great hike that was. And how wonderful to make a connection with the local fishermen.
We loved it there. Have you two stopped there?
Really interesting.
It was a really incredible stretch of coast line!
Can I join

@@SailingSeaDreamofClyde thats one way to look at it. I view it as your lack of preparation with correct charts doesn't mean it's uncharted
