Sailing North From Mexico

Our catamaran is being delivered to Ensenada just after Christmas. Can you point me to information regarding sailing north from Ensenada to San Francisco. Thanks, Steve

Hi Steve: Check out the weather links on SetSail.com for the Marine Prediction Center and their faxes. In general, you want to head N ahead of and with fronts–as the wind will be behind you. Or, wait until a high pressure system has established itself after the front and then power. Lots more details on how to do this in our Mariner’s Weather Handbook. Regards–Steve Dashew
