This sailor heads out early on a calm morning after a 3 day stay in Punta Chivato. Last night the Navy also anchored up over night also. That's
unusual. I'm sure it's just a coincidence but there were no shrimpers in the area

morning russ....I was waiting for your moon photo this morning....I just snapped a quick shot of the langosteros this morning in the moonset.
beautiful sunrise amigo!
Russ - 2-18-2011 at 07:34 AM
I was ready with the tripod last night for the moonrise but... it was too cloudy and this morning the setting moon was nice but the back ground was of
everyone's stuff they put out behind their houses.
That's nice Shari. Looks like another great day over there too.shari - 2-18-2011 at 07:43 AM
funny cause I wasnt even gonna attempt a moon shot cause I knew yours would be fantastic but it was just so beautiful and pink...then I couldnt find
my tripod and by then it was almost too late so I just ran out and did a quick snapshot....yup gonna be a smashing chamber of commerce day here
today...there was supposed to be a 9' swell but it's only around 7.5' at the moment...have a great day and weekend all!
I got the perfect moon shot today

I do enhance them some in iPhoto but the color is pretty close to the real thing. No filters on the lens but I would like to get a UV filter.David K - 2-18-2011 at 08:31 AM
Thanks Russ ... very nice!DENNIS - 2-18-2011 at 08:48 AM

Just how early was that? Seeing's how the moon rose just after nightfall, and you are apparently looking east... just saying...BigOly - 2-19-2011 at 02:44 PM
Great shots Russ. Now I'm not trying to imply anything but I have noticed that when we have boats stolen here in LB the shrimp boats were in the
area night before. I guess it wouldn't take long to drag a stolen panga over to the mainland.wessongroup - 2-19-2011 at 02:45 PM
Thanks much, really good ones... they just keep getting better... as does a number of others here, along with pretty good graphics work too, some real
talent out there....

We've noticed the same thing. However we'll find, on occasion, the boat on the other side of the island without the motor or a burned hull. and it
seems 90% of the time the theft take place on a new moon.Russ - 2-19-2011 at 04:15 PM

I'm no sailor but today's radio forecasts & computer forecasts sailors get a pretty good read on the conditions and go when opportunity knocks.
Is there another reason they shouldn't travel on Friday?toneart - 2-19-2011 at 06:07 PM
Beautiful, Russ...as always!
I was out this morning. It was real calm until McFez's moon made a huge splash over near Guaymas.
I was over by the mine, but a friend was over your way and saw the Military tearing out of Punta Chivato and speeding toward
something ominous.
Three shrimpers were out in front of El Patron.Ken Bondy - 2-19-2011 at 06:14 PM
