5) ALEBRIJES: CARVED AND PAINTED 

WHIMSICAL CRAFTED CREATURES

OF OAXACA,  🇲🇽  MEXICO

Alebrijes showcased in many shops in Huatulco, Oaxaca 🇲🇽  MEXICO

Alebrijes
were originally created in the imaginative heart and mind of artist
Pedro Linares (1906-1992) in the 1930's.  Alibrijes are sculpted
creatures that seem to be born from real animals and become fantastical
creatures with intricately patterned bodies.  The creatures have
horns or wings or both, exaggerated teeth, eyes, ears, and/or claws.
They are a feast for the eyes, heart, and mind.  

A large and brightly colored alebrije in the window of a business in Oaxaca City

In
his early years, Linares started making alebrijes out of paper and
cardboard and selling them in the mercados in Mexico City.  His
work was discovered by a gallery owner who began selling his alibrejes.
Well known artists such as Diego Rivera and Frida Khalo began
commissioning alebrijes directly from Linares.  Linares soon
returned to his native village of Arrazola outside of Oaxaca City and
shared his designs with fellow artisan Manuel Jiminez.  Then and
there alebrijes were reborn among fellow Indigenous Zapotec woodcarving
artists who began carving Linares' inspired creatures out of copal wood
and painting them.  The unique and distinct artform became well
know throughout Mexico and abroad.    

Today,
Alebrijes are still colorful and whimsical, intricately painted copal
wood carvings.  They have come to be among the most popular Mexican
folk art in the country.  

6)  NEW COSTA RICA VESSEL TIP EXTENSION
AND SPECIAL PANAMA POSSE DEAL 
@
MARINA PAPAGAYO  🇨🇷 COSTA RICA

MARINA PAPAGAYO 🇨🇷 COSTA RICA SPONSORS THE PANAMA POSSE

Marina
Papagayo is proud to continue our sponsorship of the Panama Posse fleet
for the 2022/2023 season.  The dockage discount for Posse members
is:

• Stay three nights pay for two
• Stay for a week and pay for five days
• Stay for a month and pay the annual monthly rate
• Complimentary drink coupons for the Dive bar on arrival  

NEW BENEFIT: Marina Papagayo is offering great summer deal 

Panama
Posse members have opportunity to stay for three months and get the
Fourth month free.  If members choose to stay longer the one free
month will still apply.   This will be given at the last month of
their stay.  

Marina Papagayo explains Costa Rican Tourist TIP that allows vessels to extend their stay in Costa Rica beyond 90 days:

Costa Rica is now offering a Tourist TIP for a period of 6 month or one year
and is renewable for a maximum of two years.  The vessel must
still get the standard 90 day TIP on arrival and then this can be
converted to a Tourist TIP.   The advantages of this new Temporary Importation Permit
classification is that it allows duty free importation of spares.
When the Tourist Yacht TIP is in process there is the requirement
that Customs will inspect the boat and the owner or Captain of record
must be present for this inspection.  Finally there is a cost for
the agent to process this second permit.  

Ultimately this is an easier process than the two year MOPT duty exoneration and has the benefit of the duty free spares.

8) EARLY SIGNS OF THE RAINY SEASON:

FLYING ANTS HATCH IN CHIAPAS  🇲🇽 MEXICO

Rainy
season in Mexico is more or less considered May thru November.
The early part of rainy season (April) dawns with certain hatches.
Enter the flying ant.    

A SEASONAL DELICACY OR A PEST? 

In short, it depends who you ask and more than likely how it is presented.

A basket of smoked flying ants known as nuku

Flying ant found Cruising around in the galley of a cruising vessel last week in Marina Chiapas,  🇲🇽  Mexico

Mexico
has over 530 edible hopping and flying insects.  Over 155 of them
are found in the southernmost state of Chiapas.   As of mid April
this year, flying ants are just beginning to hatch in Chiapas.
Besides being found wandering in the galley, flying ants are a
seasonal part of peoples diet in Chiapas.   Apparently, one way or
another they may make their way to the galley.

The
preparation of nuku has been passed down for generations.  Flying
ants are collected in the forest, carefully seasoned, grilled or
toasted, and eaten or sold by weight as nuku.   As food the ants,
deliver vitamins, protein, and minerals as well as a unique flavor to
the palate.  For these reasons, nuku are as sentimental as they are
nutritious.  

A
visit to the local mercado this time of year through the summer months
one can find nuku.  For some people in Chiapas nuku are a common
part of their diet during the rainy season.  Nuku is eaten with
tortillas, quesadillas, or tostadas.  Nuku is eaten on its own as a
snack and more recently can be found as a seasonal pizza topping.

10) CROSSING THE TEHUANTEPEC

IN SOUTHERN  🇲🇽 MEXICO

After a morning spent cleaning both hulls Rochambeau is ready to cross the T'Pec

SY ROCHAMBEAU  🇺🇸   Rolf & Beverly –  Lagoon 39′

Regardless
of when you and your vessel plan on crossing the Tehuantepec in
southern Mexico, it is best to proceed with caution.   Tehuantepec,
T'Pecker, or Tehuano wind, is a violent mountain-gap wind originating
with the trade winds in the Atlantic, traveling across the Caribbean
through to the Gulf of Mexico, squeezing through Chivela Pass and
dumping into the Pacific in the Gulfo de Tehuantepec.  These winds
can reach up to 70 knots and are not to be trifled with.  The
violent winds are most common between October and February, with a
summer minimum in July when hurricane season starts.

In
general, crossing the Tehuantepec will depend on your boat speed and
the “size” of the the Weather Window.  Ocean waves take about 6 –
12 hours to lay down so generally vessels only go straight across if
they have at least a 48 hour window.  

Currently,
there are as many as12 Panama Posse boats plus a few others eyeing up a
four day weather window to cross the Tehuantepac over the weekend.
Some vessels plan to use the "one foot on the beach strategy" and
contour the coast, while others are planning to "shoot straight across".
Others, still, are planning some mix in between as the situation
unfolds.

Hugging the shore adds 60 NM to the trip but the upsides are:

1. The ability for you to get live weather along the way
2. The
   opportunity to anchor along the way in somewhat protected and roadstead
   anchorages.  Sleep is Good!  (LINK TO GOOD NAUTICAL ROADSTEAD
   ANCHORAGES)
3. The opportunity to explore less visited places.

Hugging the shore is the more prudent choice as you can pick up 7 cellphone towers and update your weather forecasts.

This weather window offers vessels the opportunity to choose their own adventure

Hug the shore, Shoot across, or something in between.

ECM and SPIRE Forecasts models by Predict Wind

It will be best to be out of the Gulf by Monday! 

Shooting
Across is often chosen when the weather window is longer, the winds are
light to nill and the vessel wants to just get across more swiftly.

Whatever any vessel chooses may there be 

FAIR WINDS AND FOLLWING SEAS

 for all crossing this weekend!

 ADVENTURE SAILING MEDIA PARTNER

12) ⚠️ LONG LINES CATCH AND KILL:

WHAT TO KNOW AND LOOK OUT FOR

LONG LINES ARE ILLEGAL AND RESTRICTED IN AROUND THE WORLD...

WATCH OUT FOR THEM ALONG THE CENTRAL AMERICAN PANAMA POSSE ROUTE 

By
definition, a long line is a monofilament fishing line stretched
between two buoys (which, depending on size and seastate, may or may not
be visible) with smaller lines hanging from the main line. Each smaller
line terminates at a baited, sometimes lighted or floating, hook.
According to NOAA, the average longlines in the US (where
longlines are illegal) are 28 miles long with 1000's of these smaller
lines and can soak for hours to days.  The lines are hung at
different depth depending on the target species the fisherman aim to
catch.  

Long lines disrupt the ocean balance
by first catching fish on the lower end of the food chain such as
sardines, mackerel, squid, shark meat, or scad for bait.  Excluding
shark meat, the animals used as bait play a vital role in the marine
ecosystem providing food to larger fish and pelagic invertebrates.
The animals that prey on the sardines are predator species of
increasing size and strength.  When the bait fish are harvested
larger fish that are prey to even larger fish struggle to survive.

Longlines are a lethal weapon to the fish they seek and other marine animals
because they catch and kill marine life indiscriminately.  Most
longline crew are professional fisherman whose livelihood depends on
working well together in a highly coordinated to maximize their catch
and get as much to market as they can.  Recently, people have begun
using drones to spot fish and more precisely drop longline where fish
are.  Along the Pacific Coast between Mexico and Panama target
species include: tuna, halibut, swordfish, and sablefish.
Byproducts include highly sought after mahi-mahi.

While
longline fishing does not kill as many fish as deep sea trawling,
Longlines catch and or kill many more marine animals than they target.
These animals are called "bycatch"; they can be
searbirds or sharks to aquatic mammals.  Along the Pacific Coast
between Mexico and Panama marine animals can get hooked or entangled in
the lines.  For animals such as birds, sea turtles, or dolphins:
getting trapped underwater unable to surface for breath is a death
sentence.  It is estimated that 300,000 seabirds (including
100,000 albatross) die on longlines each year.  A recent
estimate of the total marine bycatch discarded was more than 30 million
tons per year, or about one-third of the yearly total catch.

https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S1938973613000834

How did these fish get to market AND what can cruisers do?

1. Knowing
   and sharing information about what longlines are and what to look out
   for helps bring awareness to the pressures that the fishing industry is
   putting on our oceans.  Report Longlines here:    LINK TO LONG LINES REPORT ON POSSE WEBSITE
2. Knowing
   where the fish in you fish taco comes from can help too.  Buying
   fish directly from fisherman or fish markets that you know how they get
   their catch will support better fishing methods.  Do not support
   longlining with the fish you consume.  The most sustainable fishing
   method to support is rod and reel fishing.
3. Some private vessels choose to install longline cutting devises to their boats:

the yacht using the metal railings as the earth system. The energizer
was attached to the integral 12v circuit.

White
plastic insulators have been used together with high voltage Hotshock
units. We felt this was necessary as there would only be one chance to
belt the attacker coming over the side so the 10000 v kick would prove a
substantial deterrent. This may be connected to an alarm that would
sound a siren when tampered with.

A
physical test was carried out and it is very difficult to maintain a
hold when the shock kicks in. The worst was when climbing out of water
as this was connected to the railings creating a direct link for the
electricity.

16)  MUST SEE 🇨🇷 MANUEL ANTONIO PARK

Costa
rica is one of the most biodiverse places on earth.  An excellent
place to experience Costa Ricas diverse flora and fauna is by visiting
Parque Nacional Manuel Antonio.  Manuel Antonio National Park
located on the Pacific coast a few miles south east of Quepos and Marina
Pez Vela.  This national park was named by Forbes Magazine as one
of the 12 most beautiful parks in the world.  The Park is a small
and beautiful place with many tour guides available to help visitors see
many elusive animals up close with spotting scopes while learning and
walking about the park.   

Arial View of Manuel Antonio National Park and Anchorage.

Manuel Antonio is one of Costa Rica's smallest national parks and yet it is home to a great variety of animals:

• 184 species of birds including are toucans, woodpeckers, potoos, motmots, tanagers, turkey vulture, parakeets and hawks
• many reptiles such as black spiny-tailed iguana, green iguana, common basilisk and a large variety of snakes.   
• 109 species of mammals including the three-toed sloth and two-toed sloth, three of Costa Rica’s  monkey species —

1. The mantled howler monkey
2. Central American squirrel monkey
3. Panamanian white-faced Capuchin monkey.
