Hi,
I don't seem to have much luck getting questions answered within this forum but I'll give it another go.
I will be wanting to replace halyards/sheets, get new sail-covers made, buy a used tender, liferaft, amongst other odds and sods. I'll also be needing to get my paws on paints and anti-fouls and brushes and misc. other bits and bobs for the boatyard part of the madventure.
Now here's the question: How easy is it to procur the above materials and items in SC? Or will I have to make trips back and forth across the border, bearing in mind that I cannot drive and will be having to do all of this on buses and/or donkeys.
I look forward to receiving your wisdom on any of the above.
Cheers!

I would suggest, due to your limited mobility, that you start in San Carlos at Marine Mart, Star Marine, Luis Boat Shop, or Equipesca to inquire about your boatyard supplies. I would guess that Vince Radice ([url=mailto:sunsports@prodigy.net.mx) on]sunsports@prodigy.net.mx) on[/url] this board would be able to direct you toward halyards, sheets, and covers if they are available locally.
Good Luck!
 Craig

If one of them can't help, you are doomed to travel the byways with the hoardes!
Best of Luck!
