The one good thing about this forum is the friendships it creates.  With Arima owners and former Arima owners still getting together to do what they love...   Having owned 6 different Arimas between us, I would say we were in the club.  Anywho here are the pics and I will let First Cabin and Canvas Guy tell their stories.  And don't go to Mexico, it is way to dangerous...  Blessed to see that sunrise on the Sea of Cortez once again.

Welcome back.  That looks like a great time, plus you caught a few fish!  Glad you all had some relaxation and a safe return.  We have had crap for weather as you're probably discovering!   :jester:

What is so dangerous about raking your boat to Cabo.
Or just driving to there in the first place?

What are the written rules or non written rules on your catch, can you keep all your take or is this something that changes from captain to captain in Mexico.

No rules about your catch.  It's yours to do as you please.  We brought back just under 70 lbs of tuna/dorado and must have given away 200-300 pounds of fish.  We were fishing out of San Jose del Cabo and fishing the banks.  Good weather, lots of beer and quick trip to Cabo Wabo more beer.  Squid Roe and more beer with some flavored tequila. Cabo marina and thinking about a quick massage for my sore back.  And of course a couple of sombero shots with some more beer.
