| We stayed at this marina while we were in Mazatlán. The marina
was a development project gone bad. It was intended to be an exclusive
gated condominium and hotel complex. It's built on its own little island
connected via a bridge. The island was going to be ringed with docks for
the use of the condo owners. They still have the plans, drawings, and
dioramas on display. Finances went awry while the project was underway
and work stopped abruptly. Today it's left pretty-much just as it was
while under construction. Building materials lie here and there and it's
all unfinished with a sort-of bombed out look to it. The docks are partially
finished and are rented out on a short or long-term basis to visiting
yachts. Some have water, but none have electricity. It made for an inexpensive
and comfortable home for the month we stayed. Very nice and friendly people,
both in the office and the other cruisers. |
