BAJA or BUST 2017 Trips

[Mahigeer]

Bob,

Thanks for the fuel cost estimate. It is a bargain. There also should be the water fee and road fees to share.


As for the food part, put me down whatever night it works for the group.

I guess me and Gr8fuldude can share a night. If I (we) catch fish, then I (we) can donate, if not I am ok to pay. I rather not bring meat or other perishable items. That way I don't worry about anybody getting sick on my (our) night.

Providing of course Gr8fuldude agrees with the above.

I will get together with Gunrunner on the dinner deal. On another note did anyone take a panga out? I for one would like to take one out a day or two

[makobob]

I told Capt we might need panga for a day or two, I will need to know what days you want, I would say 3-4 persons max. Please let me know by 10th of October so I can let him know.

GUYS, we need to vary the meals a little unless you WANT fish, shrimp most of the time, ll good for me, up to you. Tight lines.

Is there a deal that could be worked out with the restaurant, that would allow us to store fish in their freezer for the duration.

Otherwise if we vacuum pack our fillets, would they hold it for us for a fee?

When we get in camp, I take out meat for meals cooked at the restuarant over to them and let them know what nights and times we will be there to eat. Also what meat for what night. They store in freezer until needed. The more we use their cooking the easier it is to ask them to store our fish for takng home. Your bags need to have your name on them. By the end of the year I expect to have my own freezer up and running at the new place so this would not be a concern for 2016 trips.

I could eat fish every day easily.

[makobob]

Jeff, I usually keep on hand a few cans of tuna, sardines, and anchovies in assorted sauces for your fine dining pleasure. Bon apatite amigo.

I meant I can eat fresh fish everyday

[Mahigeer]

Thanks for the reply.


So I take it by next year you will have power at your place?

What is next?

A cappuccino machine? A wine cooler?

[makobob]

Just arrived, 5 each 100W solar panels, 30 W solar controller and a 2500 W inverter which should let me run a few lights, a freezer, some power tools on ac and still have 12v dc battery power. Still need to get 4 each 12v deep cycle batteries and wiring for system and find someone to help install it. So yes next year will be much easier.

Of course it is a bargin, the reason for these trips is to get people to Baja. My truck helps keep cost low. Sharing your truck with others cuts costs in half. There are no road fees going through Mexicali and water should be $5.00 per person for the week, if we use more it would go up, but $5.00 usually covers it unless someone leaves the water running.

As to meat, freeze it at home, ice it and I will put it into the freezer when we get to camp, we have never had meat go bad on a one week trip even without the freezer.

Sounds good, Hashem, let's share a night of dinner at the restaurant. I doubt it will be a problem to have enough fish to eat

[makobob]

Fish it is!!!!!! Corvina are great eating and should be easy enough to catch from the beaches in the evenings.
