CA to FL - 5000 miles on a 36-ft trawler

Quick update. We left Ensenada MX with the Baja Ha Ha fleet on October 30th 2023, one of six powerboat in a fleet of 110 boats. We had a great time aboard Weebles, a 1970 Willard 36 full displacement trawler.

We left Barra de Navidad this morning headed to Zihuateneo, a run of about 200 nms at 6-1/4 kts, a 32 hour run at just over 1 gph. We've logged about 1500 nms so far

I've started to post pictures to an Instagram account. For those bi-curious sailors wondering what cruising on a trawler looks like, feel free to follow along.
