In the afternoon we went to Piedras Pintas Beach and I snorkelled for about 15 minutes before I got disgusted by the amount of garbage underwater. The water was clear and just a little on the cool side and it would have been lovely except for the debris. There was also a lot of broken glass up in the parking area even though earlier in the week we saw a group of people cleaning up. The town itself has clean streets. This area reminds me more of a U.S. town than a Mexican town. Prices are higher as well. It seems to get very windy in the afternoons too.
When we were boon-docking in the Pemex at Los Mochis, we discovered that while we had some water pressure, it was not up to snuff, nor would the pump come up to pressure and shut off; it remained running. This was diagnosed as a partially blocked water pump intake filter. When we arrived in San Carlos, and relaxed for a few days, we removed the easily accessed filter from the pump, dissembled and cleaned it, reassembled and reinstalled it, ten minutes, total, and presto, everything worked fine, just like we knew what we were doing. This has been the sum total of the maintenance that we have required this trip. So far, so good.
