you can buy fuel in the marina in santa rosalia now
it takes about 2-3 hours running fast to get from there to here

i will arrange fuel here in the bay if you stop by
i have about 30 gallons in gas cans and the gas station is about 10 minutes away

there is no gas available on the water in mulege
you'd need to get a taxi and haul it

we are very close to the mputh of the bay and protected from heavy surf

there is camping next door

PSFO often has gas they truck in for their local vehicle and boat use and to sell to MC riders coming thru. it is hit/miss but i think usually it is avail more often that not.
my friends a few years ago rode from Kino BAY to PSFO across the midriff islands. they had extra gas on tow ropes, sort of "suport gear" trailers rigged up behind the wave runners. They got gas at PSFO and went back to Kino.
one of them later did a ride all the way down the peninsula, had their machines trucked out and flew out themselves. what a way to go!
this post is in aircraft section - are you looking for aerial support by chance?

TRying to map out refuel points using my AAA map and hoping my fellow nomads can help me. Anyone know if there is reliable barrel fuel at SAn Francisquito? Better yet - at Los Corrales Fish camp about 20 miles farther south? Also, please let me know if you are interested in joing us.


I would plan on more than 2 days... there is a factor called WIND often in April, as well. The Gulf of California is no lake in the mountains!

Have a great adventure!

A chase truck that meets you at each point where road and sea meets is a sure way to have fuel and food/ water where you need it... Las Animas, San Rafael, San Francisquito (Caleta or Resort?)... then a long run to Santa Rosalia (or one more time at Los Corrales if you need fuel there but it will take the chase truck a while to drive from Los Corrales to Santa Rosalia).
