Crockett pier

The Nantucket (seafood restaurant) is in the Crockett marina and this is the view from their deck. The pier looks like it could use a little repair but then I think it's probably not used much if this boat is the only thing that's ever tied up there.

More graffiti

And again, here's more graffiti along the Valparaiso stream. Someone asked if the 'artists' stand in the water to create these images and the answer is: probably. As one could see in the last photo there's not a lot of water in the stream. Otherwise, I suppose a boat would do the trick.

Rusty

In Mazatlan we saw another interesting boat, this one a working fishing boat. It's quite colorful but mainly because of the rust. I pray they are not at sea when the bailing starts!

Man in a boat

Shortly after we arrived in Mazatlan around 6 AM, I noticed this boat coming across the bay, to cross in front of our moored ship. The man in the back was rapidly leaning down and up, as if he were rowing - but the boat had a motor that was obviously working. So what was he doing? As the boat came closer I could see that he was bailing water as fast as he could. In the photo you can see the water and the bucket. Too bad it's not a movie!
