Default Just a thought ;; there will be some very good bargains ..

Sure thing... not sure which day just yet. Also, I was told that the
Moorings base in La Paz can be quite helpful, even if you aren't a customer.
There's also a pretty good VHF net that's ongoing... I forget the guy who
runs it, but he monitors and helps put people in touch.

I'm happy to stop by and let you look, borough, etc., what I have. I'm
supposed to be in the general area next week. ...


Thanks for all of that. I think we be getting the Cunningham CD with
waypoints. It annoys me a little that the Mexican gov't has a list of
charts with modern revisions in WGS84 but I can't find a US dealer
for them. It has been my experience in the South Pacific that NIMA
charts are horrible. Often based on 19th century surveys and not
updated since the 70's. Apparently it is the same for Mexico.
However, the French charts are great in the French possessions, NZ
charts at least have up to the week nav aids on them and BA charts are
excellent (but very, very dear). I bet Mexican charts are the best bet
in Mexican waters, too. So why can't we buy them? Ugh.

Anyway, if you are passing though please feel free to drop by anytime.
