South to the warm
Article Abstract:
The Baja Ha-Ha is a West Coast cruiser rally which starts each October, as the hurricane season ends in Mexico, when hundreds of boats head south from Alaska, British, Columbia, Washington, Oregon and California. They meet at Cabo and after a few get-togethers, the boats disperse into the cruising grounds of the Sea of Cortez and the mainland Mexican coast to cruise for a season or a year.
