In Chamela we had no problem checking into Amigo net (6.227) mHz but here in Tenacatita we cannot hear much but static. We think it is because we are tucked in by the hills.
Just before we left Paradise Village Marina in Banderas Bay Mexico for Chamela (Perula Bay) we were taking down our Shadetree boat awning systems and our ICOM 802 SSB antenna wire fell off the back stay were it was
clamped on. It was corroded. We stripped it and replaced onto the back stay.
There is a VHF net here which starts at
9:00 AM on channel 22a but we do not know if it is started up yet, guess we
could start it up if there is any one around?
We are one of two boats in Tenacatita now.
This anchorage can have up to 60 boats in it and usually a couple dozen. It is
too early for the snow birds to migrate here I think. They show up about the middle of January. Probably after the holidays
they will arrive en mass. When
they are here it is a happening place. Botchy ball, Mexican train dominoes and
other games on shore every day long with the “Mayor’s raft up” every Friday evening.
Guess Debbie and I are the King and Queen now of Tenacatita!
Anchored in Tenacatita.
We are enjoying the quiet and peace of the
place. On the way back up the coast we will most likely hit the crowd so each
has it’s fun factors.
While in Chamela it was busy and a bit noisy
with dogs barking and kids (locals) on the beach etc but it was a festive
noise.
So here it is quite different (at this time)
and each anchorage has it’s own vibe.
