David Kindopp owned and operated a real estate brokerage for many years in Northern California. He learned to sail on San Francisco Bay and soon discovered that sailing and Mexico was a combination he could not resist. During a visit to Mazatlan he determined he would chuck his brokerage life in California and bring a sailboat to that beach town and try his hand at a charter business. Sacrificing home and hearth and "security" at the altar of a mid-life Mexican dream cost him his business and his marriage. Undeterred, he found a vintage ketch, made it ready for the ocean, and cast off. Come join the odyssey of sailing to Mazatl n - working with Mexican "partners", negotiating tourist ladies, expats, the federales (almost being thrown into a Mexican jail), laughter, lust, love, and the adventure of a lifetime. David currently lives in Northern California, where he is planning more adventures in Mexico.
