A somewhat dated article scanned from Latitude 38 called "Mexico Debriefing" gives some good tips on what cruisers have learned from the Baja Ha-Ha trip...old but still valid and good insights for newbies. Also, if you are coming down from San Francisco in September for the Baja Ha-Ha, the "San Francisco to San Diego" article from Yachtsman magazine depicts what might be experienced.

"Gales, Whales and the Baja Ha-Ha" is a 53-minute sailing documentary video depicting the events surrounding the Baja Ha-Ha XVI (Oct. 25-Nov. 7, 2009). To view the film, click here.

The Baja Ha-Ha sailing regatta includes two stops.  The first stop, Turtle Bay, is almost halfway down the West Coast of Mexico.  The village by the bay has basic supplies and a fuel concession delivers diesel by panga.  The second stop at Bahia Santa Maria is very remote with no facilities.
