You are all right.
I'm going to have Dauntless pulled here.
I want her out of the water for winter.
She's been run hard and put away wet too often.
Yes. They get a crane, but they also modify, build, a trailer to pull her.
Huatulco is a great town. I regret stopping so soon, but dry storage is at a premium until one gets north of Mazatlan. That's a 1000 miles away.
And not only are there no safe harbors, the few stopping places there are will be affected by the sw swell.
All in all, too many risks for questionable returns.
Thanks for the advice. I'm taking it this time

If you haven't already met them look for Chris and Gerry aboard their 45' aluminum trawler "Misty Michael". They're originally from Canada and have been liveaboards in the Marina Chahue for the last several years. They have extensive knowledge about Huatulco so if you need anything they would be a great resource for you. Note: It's possible they're in Mazatlan now getting some work done on their boat.
If you need any recommendations for anything in Huatulco don't hesitate to contact me. I been going to Huatulco since the late 80's and have owned a house there for over 15 years so I know the area very well.
NOTE: Avoid a young guy by the name of Enrique. PM me if you want the details about him.
