Ship's Log:
After a very stuffy motor through the night we arrived in Acapulco at 1100hrs. This port has grown substantially since I was here aboard the Swift in /89. Our days up to this point in leg 2 have been filled with small coastal villages, dream-like beaches and visits to the outback of Mexico. Everyone was very excited when we were warmly welcomed to the yacht club, complete with showers, laundry, steam room, pool and the ability to go ashore whenever you want. We plan to be here a couple of days until the weather down south lets up a bit. All are well and planning their shore time to make the most of our visit here.
