Nicaraugua



We left El Salvador early 6 am in the morning and had a beautiful sail into Nicaragua. About 3 hours out the water color changed to a deeper blue and the clairity improved. As we approached Nicaraugua we could see clouds or red dust blowing from off the high hills. It is sugar cane harvesting season and the smoke filled land deposited little shards of black carbon all over us.
The sail was perfect we had a lot of wind that changed throughout the day. The marina is first class. The beaches and Estuary are noticeably cleaner than those of El Salvador. Here we are first boat in the background enjoying the marina.
