No problem Kent. Good luck and hope you guys have a good time!

Hmmm, interesting. I live in Yuma and have a 26 foot Chaparral Signature. So far, weather looks great for Friday. I'd consider coming down tomorrow (Thursday) later afternoon and going fishing all day Friday to Area 51 (51 miles out) (or stay closer if you prefer) for big fish (grouper...

Sounds good Boccaccio5, as it gets closer we'll see what the weather does and figure it out from there. As stated in my previous post if the weather looks real good for all those days my buddy and I will probably just head out ourselves and stay one or two nights on the boat ourselves (sorry...

Under the "fishing" forum look under the thread you posted at my thread "fishing report August 13th". Will be in Rocky Point Sept 2-5 and we're hoping to head out to Area 51 on my boat and spend one or two nights on it fishing for big fish (hopefully Halibut) including sharks, or do day trips...

Interesting, thanks Stuart.

Great points! Sounds like you've had alot of fun out there. You're absolutely right about Area 51, have been dying to get out there. Was real hard for me to get out this summer, seemed like it was near impossible to coordinate time off with good weather, but am heading out again in a couple...

Don't think it was a seal because I was fishing in that area for a few hours and never seen any seals come up for air, and in the past I've thrown small fish to seals who've been hanging around the boat and they never seem interested in them. Have only been boating in the Rocky Point area for...

Well, went out fishing in the Caballo area last few days, wanted to go to Area 51 but it was too windy Saturday to Monday. Pulled up a few fish, then pulling up about a 5- 7 pounder then about 50 feet from the surface DIOS MIO!!! WHAM!!! something grabs the fish and I literally just about get...

Yes it will, its really worth the trip out there to see all the sea lions! Am sure you'll like it!

I go out to Bird Island with my private boat every so often, and highly recommend it. It's about 20 miles out which is a short distance if the water's calm, a long distance if its rough. Its a real neat fun place, especially for kids, since there's a lot of sea lions hanging out on the island...

I agree with you 100% mundane, sorry mrchief98, that's bad advice. Insurance companies do everything they can to not pay. They say they cover you in Mexico, but if you got in an accident in Mexico, I bet my last beer they won't cover you. And I agree 100% with you mondone, if you get in an...

Well, its been a couple months since my boat broke down and I started this thread and I thought I'd just write a summation note. First of all, I'd like to thank everyone for their ideas and input, I looked at everyone's responses and considered which ideas would work for me and which wouldn't...

In the last year I've pulled my boat from Yuma to Rocky Point, crossing at the San Luis point of entry, about 6 times. Each time they've checked by boat and trailer registration paperwork to make sure it matches my ID and boat/trailer VIN, then I'm on my way in about 5-10 minutes. Crossed the...

Because the weather forecast for this Sunday and Monday looks great am driving down to Rocky Point this Saturday but not hooking up with family until Tuesday. Pulling down a 26 ft Chaparral Signature, will be launching out of Safe Marina early Sunday and/or Monday around 6AM and heading out to...

Recently I've fished Rocky Point with my boat for a few days I've crossed back several times into the States with a lot of cleaned fish and they don't care at all. I've asked them if there's a limit, and they said there really isn't, as long as you're not bringing it back for commercial purposes...

Love it! Thank-you.

Just got the boat out of the shop. Mechanic put in on the scope, no error messages, nothing showed up. Did the once over, couldn't find a single problem with the engine (has only 140 hours on it). I'm gonna have to go with it must've been a fuel vapor lock. Oh well, live & learn. And then go...

In reference to buying a fishing license, you can buy fishing licenses at the Municipal building in Rocky Point Monday - Friday. Mexico has an online site whereby you're supposed to be able to purchase licenses online, but it hasn't worked forever! Do you need a fishing license? Legally, yes...

As far as I know, you can get the Duramax from Lowes in any color you want.

Well, if you buy it in the States, I highly recommend Duramax from Lowes. It's expensive, but it has a lifetime guarantee. And I mean a real lifetime guarantee, when you buy the paint Lowes signs a contract/guarantee with you that if it chips, fades, whatever, they'll fix it. Using an airless...
