Aduana headaches.


Our crates have finally arrived in El Salvador. They are being held at customs and "aduana" dispite our efforts in hiring a broker to navigate around the paperwork we still are subject to the taxes. The solution was to sail to La Union which is a port with customs so they can witness that the crates are going to a "ship" that is leaving the country. This involves a 13 hour sail from where we are at. The problem is that a lot of the "stuff" in the crates is navigational
equipment. It is a good opportunty for "sea trials"
