HITCHING A<br />
RIDE SOUTH<br />
This year's Mexico-Only Crew<br />
List Party and Baja Ha-Ha Reunion<br />
on September 9 served<br />
its purpose by linking dozens<br />
of potential crew members with<br />
skippers in need of additional<br />
watch-standers.<br />
If you missed that shindig and<br />
would re<strong>all</strong>y like to spend some<br />
quality time south of the border,<br />
you might still be able to find a<br />
ride via our online Crew List at<br />
www.latitude<strong>38</strong>.com, which is<br />
constantly updated.<br />
IS THE PACIFIC<br />
PUDDLE JUMP IN<br />
YOUR FUTURE?<br />
For many cruisers, the next<br />
logical step after cruising<br />
Mexican waters for a season or<br />
more is to hang a right and head<br />
west into the Pacific.<br />
We c<strong>all</strong> that annual springtime<br />
migration the Pacific Puddle<br />
Jump, and report on it heavily<br />
in the <strong>pages</strong> of <strong>Latitude</strong> <strong>38</strong>.<br />
Making that 3,000-mile passage<br />
is one of the most thrilling<br />
accomplishments in the realm<br />
of sailing. Learn more about the<br />
spring 2010 crossing at<br />
