Sailors’ Chance to Comment on A-Cup
What will perhaps be the only opportunity for the Bay’s sailing and recreational boating community to actually get on record over how the America’s Cup will affect us is coming up tonight. The Coast Guard will be hosting a public meeting to field comments on the impacts of America’s Cup at Gresham Hall on Coast…
Jova a Non-Event in Banderas Bay
Here’s something you’re not likely to see again anytime soon — a hurricane/slash tropical storm passing to the east of Puerto Vallarta. In other words, inland of the coastal city. The threat of 50-knot winds has yet to materialize on Banderas Bay. © NOAA Yet that’s exactly what happened early this morning, as Category 2…
Photo Contest of the Day
If onboard fires aren’t every boater’s biggest fear, they probably should be. Fiberglass boats are made up primarily of accelerant so once a fire starts, it’s frighteningly tough to put out. Boaters go to great lengths to prevent conflagrations, from installing smoke detectors to automatic flame suppression systems. But not all fires start in the…
Mazatlan Speaks Out
In a posting here last week, we discussed the concerns some potential cruisers have about sailing in Mexican waters these days. Our main point in that and previous reports was that the info we’ve been receiving from many cruisers is that they feel much safer cruising Mexico than visiting urban areas of the U.S. We…

The most recent forecast predicts that Jova will make landfall a few miles north of…

Fleet Week is Back!
One of the Bay’s truly special spectacles is back this weekend when the U.S. Navy’s Fleet Week celebration comes to town. While that means there’ll be cool stuff like air shows by the Blue Angels, and war ship parades and tours, it also means that the Coast Guard has set aside some space for all…
Sun is Overrated
Abby, Jessica, Brad, Dale, Ivi and Herb proved they aren’t fair weather sailors by taking a jaunt to Ayala Cove, where they report they were the only boat. © 2011 Dale Angus On Monday, we challenged our Facebook fans to not let a few days of rain and gloom dampen their sailing spirit. "Aw, rain…
Two, Not One, Hurricanes Forecast for P.V.
According to various hurricane forecasting services, Tropical Storms Jova and Irwin were expected to develop into hurricanes, then make beelines for Banderas Bay / Puerto Vallarta, making landfall on late Monday night and Thursday respectively. The vast majority of Mexican hurricanes travel to the northwest, paralleling the coast and then heading offshore. These two storms…
America’s Cup FAQs Updated
The first two America’s Cup World Series events are in the bag, and we thought it would be a good time to update the America’s Cup FAQ page on our website. Since the FAQs were first published earlier this year, the answers to many of the questions have changed as the event has developed from…
