Circumstances:
Shortly after takeoff from Loreto Airport, the crew encountered technical problems and elected to return. On final approach over the Gulf of California, in a gear up configuration, the aircraft struck the water surface and came to rest into the sea close to the shore, few dozen metres short of runway 34 threshold. Both pilots escaped uninjured while the aircraft was damaged beyond repair.
