Baja Filter


The photo is of a genuine Baja (pronounced "Baha") fuel filter on the left and the ersatz one that I purchased in Richmond, CA on the right. Inside the Baja filter you can see the first of three filters, each successively finer. These filters are considered sine qua non for taking on fuel in Baja California and beyond because they ensure that the fuel delivered to the boat's tank is free of particle and water contamination. At the other end of the Baja filter is a 1" diameter pipe that will fit inside Pachuca's fuel intake.
