Hi All,

I'm planning on sailing a cruising catamaran through the Panama Canal
and up the west coast of Central America next year. I'm looking for a
place to put my vessel up on the hard for a few months during this trip.
Can anyone recommend a good yard capable of hauling and storing a
large (45') cat for a few months.

Thanks!

People's definition of "Central America" varies, but if you include
Mexico, there's Opeqimar in Puerto Vallarta.

Whoops, that's spelled "opequimar".

I also see they have a 23 foot beam limit. I expect that's a problem.

I would try asking on the SSCA Bulletin Board with more specific information
about the countries you are willing to stay in.
