Steve,
    That ship designed to haul small boats would  be well worth the sail 
to Ensenada if  it did not require unstepping the mast. I read about a 
barge that they were using on the East Coast where the boats sailed on 
the barge which then functioned as a dry dock. Do you know if this is 
available on the left coast?  You could save two large yard bills on 
each end of the trip. Joe
