I have been reading these forums for some time, but never posted. Hopefully the reply with clipping the previous posts is the correct method. Pure novice kayaker, and living in New Mexico, will stay that way for some time. Purchased 2 used Feathercraft Kahuna folding kayaks and vacationed in San Carlos Mexico via motorhome and tow car in May. Did PFDs, paddle floats, bilge pumps, inflatable float bags, and sea socks for a bit of a safety edge, calm seas, stayed in sight of shore with no fog expected (compass just in case). Trip Pics at: http://travel.webshots.com/album/563642141kgCbnb?start=0 with first page mostly trip pics not kayak pics. Some good shots of Brown Pelicans etc though if you hang in.

Dan, you may also post the link at the Folding Kayaks forum. Go to http://foldingkayaks.org/phpBB/ , register, and post the link in "Favorite Places" or "Trip Reports". Mostly people with folders go to Baja penincila for paddling getaways - either to lagunas of the Pacific side, or to rocky shores and isalnds of the Sea of Cortez side. Baja is less developed so far, less tourism infrastructure and generally less people, but this whill change with time. If you are motorhome type, there are RV camps on Sea of Cortez side like Bahia de Los Angeles or San Lucas (near Santa Rosalia), with good road access and nice paddling scenery. To me most of them are already too populated, but different people are looking fo different things. > I have been reading these forums for some time, but never posted. > > Hopefully the reply with clipping the previous posts is the correct method. > > Pure novice kayaker, and living in New Mexico, will stay that way for some > time.

Our son was born at the clinic in Guaymas in 1977; as far as we know the first baby born to cruising sailors in the Sea of Cortez. A month later cruising friends in La Paz had another baby boy. We didn't kayak while we were there but we did a lot of paddling... er, rowing. (grin) Thanks for the photos. Glad you had a good time.
