On this week's episode of Onboard Lifestyle, the crew of basik sail into Bahia Tenacatita for more new adventures. We set our anchor and it was off for more fun in the mangroves by dinghy in search for crocodiles and Emma becomes the Net Controller for the Cruiser's Morning Net for the day. Come back next week to see what else we find in this beautiful bay...see you then!

previously on onboard lifestyle we left
0:33
bandera's bay and had a great overnight
0:36
sail from punta de meda to bahia chamela
0:39
we dropped anchor between isla san pedro
0:42
and isla san agustin and met up with a
0:44
few other cruising families
0:46
we spent the next three days just
0:48
relaxing and hanging out with old
0:50
friends and a few new ones
0:53
an impromptu bonfire was definitely a
0:55
highlight of this anchorage before we
0:57
transited the uncharted southern exit of
1:00
this bay the girls are up on the four
1:02
deck one on each hull
1:04
and they're watching for obstructions
1:06
we're looking at our sonar
1:09
and
1:11
i'm just going to take it slow here
1:13
we set sail south to bahia tanakata
1:16
where we'll pick up today's story
1:25
[Music]
1:28
i said tell me your story
1:30
[Music]
1:42
and wrote something for me
1:46
[Music]
1:50
then he kept walking on down
1:58
[Applause]
1:59
[Music]
2:02
and i thought i'd just seen a ghost
2:12
[Music]
2:15
during the winter season tanakatita is
2:17
one of the most popular anchorages on
2:19
mexico's pacific coast with mild winds
2:22
and great protection this bay will have
2:24
plenty of room for 40 to 60 boats that
2:27
can be here at any given time
2:29
hanukkah tita is so popular that a mayor
2:31
is chosen for each season and a vhf
2:34
morning net is broadcasted to inform the
2:36
residents of the daily events
2:39
this isolated anchorage only has one
2:41
palapa restaurant and you must travel to
2:43
la manzania or bara de navidad for
2:46
supplies
2:47
this adds to the charming character of
2:49
the ia tenukatina
3:00
it's jungle time it's jungle time
3:02
we're going to do the estuary tour today
3:06
but we're going to take it easy this
3:07
time teal likes to speed through
3:10
hey i was a young kid when that happened
3:12
you were young you were young
3:14
yes you were young
3:17
we were all young at one point no we
3:19
gotta learn the
3:21
the path first before you get all cocky
3:24
and
3:24
and do a speed run again we're not doing
3:27
the speed run we're gonna take our time
3:28
we're gonna enjoy
3:30
the flora and the fauna today i want to
3:32
see some crocodiles oh we'll probably
3:34
see a crocodile or two
3:37
i'm so excited i i really want to see
3:39
another crocodile
3:40
up close and personal i haven't seen you
3:42
in a while you know what i want
3:44
lunch when we get there
3:47
so
3:50
it's all about timing on this you can't
3:52
go at low tide to make it across the bar
3:55
of this little teeny uh
3:57
estuary
3:58
it's about a two and a half mile run of
4:00
the
4:01
to the lagoon and we'll leave the dinghy
4:03
there and probably have a little bite to
4:05
eat and try to hightail it out before uh
4:08
the tide's too low i'm kind of bummed we
4:10
don't have enough time to visit the
4:12
tequila distillery hey maybe next time
4:15
give us something to look forward to
4:16
next time we come to this area
4:19
okay you guys ready to do this yeah
4:22
[Music]
4:37
we were the lead boat of three that were
4:40
making this trek today so to avoid any
4:42
embarrassment i watched and studied how
4:45
the local pongas entered the estuary
4:48
i noticed that they would time the sets
4:51
and ride on top of an incoming wave
4:53
staying closest to the breakwater until
4:56
you reach the bend
4:58
after that it became clear real fast
5:01
i didn't do enough research
5:04
looks like it's getting pretty shallow
5:05
darling
5:08
you're hitting mud you're hitting mud
5:09
you're hitting mud teal teal
5:12
over here yeah tide's coming in for
5:14
another two hours
5:16
we got to make sure we just get out not
5:18
to
5:19
work over there i don't know she's just
5:21
walking us i think it looks deeper like
5:22
right straight through that middle
5:25
definitely getting deeper
5:28
i didn't mean to
5:30
go and jump in him all our paddles
5:44
so
5:50
[Music]
5:57
as the estuary narrowed i had this urge
6:00
to pick up the pace just a bit
6:03
as i had done 15 years earlier
6:06
watching emma's face i know she enjoyed
6:08
it
6:09
i know i sure did
6:10
[Music]
6:34
that was teal trying to relive
6:37
his uh reckless years
6:39
whatever i was under total control it
6:43
had all under control actually i had no
6:45
doubt but it was kind of cool so
6:48
beautiful i know
6:50
that was so fun though are we even
6:52
halfway
6:53
it's only two and a half miles we got to
6:55
be getting close to the lagoon up here
7:19
we left the dinghies in the lagoon and
7:21
walked a short distance to the palapa
7:23
line beach where we met up with a few
7:26
other cruisers
7:28
we enjoyed an amazing lunch of empananas
7:30
day camarones and icy cold cervezas
7:34
we had to cut our beach time short to
7:37
race back to the estuary entrance before
7:39
it was too shallow to navigate
8:01
every morning at 8 30 am sharp the
8:04
cruisers and tanakata participate in a
8:06
vhf net on channel 17.
