I took my 26S Mac on a 12 day cruise out of San Carlos. The group I was with went all the way down to Puerto Escondido. With the Mac you can dock at the Loreto dock area, or enter the river at Mulege and tie up to the sea wall for the night or two. The Port Capn's are really friendly. Just watch the weather, and listen to the nets. The Sea of Cortez is beautiful, and I can't wait to get back.
