Navolato is one of the most violent cities in the cartel drug war going on in Sinaloa. Fortunately, the mobsters usually kill eachother, but sometimes innocents get caught in the crossfire. I'm glad you, your family and your boat made it out of there unharmed. LARRY Sometimes it pays not to know the full picture.

Don't know the joules rating, but it is large (cost $500 at radio shack). Should I mail it to Eduardo or something? Need specs? Better email me if so.

We are a kid boat with Genoa 14 and Jordyn 10 aboard. We're in Mazatlan in the el Cid right now, hopefully we'll run into you guys some time. The closet thing in the el cid to our age is our puppy, Jess! Sassona Hi, we heard about you guys from Passat. We are a kid boat with Genoa 14 and Jordyn 10 aboard.

Your shrimp dish looked yummy! So, did you sign the wall and if so what number are you? We are curious about how much Altata has changed since the first reports in 2001. I enjoyed reading the logs you mention above, Todd, and can see why entering at night could be too exciting. What an interesting town. Hopefully it won't be spoiled by too much development. On to the nature preserve..let us know about the boobies! Shay Can we come for dinner?!? Your shrimp dish looked yummy! So, did you sign the wall and if so what number are you?

There's another set of waypoints published by s/v Tomboy that fully takes into account having to steer to starboard around the sand bar on your way in. s/v Beyond Reason (also 6ft draft) used Tomboy's waypoints to enter at low tide without incident so we'll be using those waypoints on our way out. For the waypoints scroll down to the Google Earth map of the entrance in this PDF: http://gabrito.com/files/altata-mx-2002-2007.pdf The GPS waypoints we used to enter Altata were posted here: http://www.phorton.com/Rhapsody/RhapsodyLogs/2007-11-24/AltataNotice.html
