Puerto Vallarta, Mexico This was the “dredge” that had to daily go out and keep the harbor entrance from shoaling up. For we shallow draft catamarans, this was no big deal. However, a big yacht race was about to come down to Puerto Vallarta and for them, it was critical….

It’s how we call back to the US on our computers. La Cruz de Huanacaxtle, Mexico The “dinghy dock” at La Cruz. Note a few of the dinghies with “wheels”. This makes it a lot easier for us to pull the our tender up and out of the water.
