am seeking a good hurrycame hole for summer and this one seems to be controlled completely by the marina riviera nayarit– they are also making a fee for dinghy dock usage— anything to make it not comfortable for those with less dough and more brains.. oh well..i guess they donot want to have the meager business and incomes provided by the less than too wealthy cruising folk.. is sad, and will affect the businesses here a bit more than anticipated by the marina, if it was anticipated at all…. seems cruisers buy foodstuffs and provisions here as the businesses are relatively close to the boater…too bad. i noticed the “moneyed” ones who choose to anchor do not mind the addition of fees to the daily task of landing and provisioning for cruises….( they are also self appointed language police..LOL)
smooth sailing–we wait until 1400 for the ultimate news for this problem today…

not certain as to where i will spend hurrycame season…. is going to be outfreekingrageous rates here in la cruz huanacaxtle, so i will not summer here. not sure as to where i will go as yet….

sent jib in for repairs today–the forestay looks sooo nekkid sans roller sail..when this is done, i may look into a newer mizzen, as the material feels soooo soft next to the feel of my jib.. for th ejib i am having the sacrificil color restitched and the straps for the clew hardwares all restitched or replaced as needed so i am able to truly SAIL this boat…. met the man who used to own her and who named her– he and his wife have restaurant here and are good folks and the food in their restaurant is awesome good…
