Yacht Elisa Mia sinks off the coast

No real news yet on where or when except that someone reported a yacht had hit a rock somewhere off Bahia de Navidad. Our local busybody found a picture of it submerged but didn't bother to mention where she found it. I found a picture of the Elisa Mia moored in a Puerta Vallarta marina a little over a year ago. A very good idea not to relax when anywhere near shore around here. Some very big rocks/mountains just below the surface.

I assume it went all the way down

Update on the Elisa Mia -- Somehow they re-floated it and brought it into the harbor in Barra.  Any more than that I haven't heard

Melaque and Barra from the air

Someone on the local forum posted a picture of a flight coming into Manzanillo airport suggesting it might be full of vacationers from up north. The plane wasn't much more than a dot. That reminded me that I had these fotos from my flight down in 2004 when I was still a working stiff. I doubt much has changed except that Barra has a lot less sand now.

That was an interesting arrival as the airport was fogged in and this big loop over Melaque was our third and finally successful try at landing.
