Both Coches Prietos and Cueva Valdez have sandy beaches. Over Labor Day, Benchmark mostly motored over and around the east end to get to Coches. Coming back on Sunday, we sailed after we turned the corner at the east end, sailing about 2 hours. We motor-sailed the rest of the way. We were very surprised that there were about 30 boats anchored at Coches or Alberts. A lot of SB Yacht Club members were there for the weekend, so it is hard to spot Benchmark or Alec Hardy’s boat. We had a few drinks on the beach.
