QUESTIONS

a.  I am looking for 1/2 share in a panga in Los Barriles. I come down twice a year for 2-4 weeks, once in the summer, once in December. I would like to be able to use a boat when I am down here. I have operated boats in Puget Sound for 20 years, so I have experience in boat handling. I am willing to buy into your boat so that I have one to use on my short stays. The only reason I am not buying a boat outright is that leaving a boat sitting unused for such a long time during the year increases the likelihood of mechanical problems. Let me know if you want a partner. I am currently in LB. wasser.larry@gmail.com

b.  Looking for a WWII historian. I came across a 1945 issue of the “Lighting News” which appears to be German propaganda. I’m interested in learning more about it. kay.mundt@gmail.com

c.  Is there an office in Los Barriles that sells Auto insurance for National cars.?
Robin santana@hughes.net  www.SantanaIron.net

d.  Where can I buy pickled ginger and curry powder? Bajarest@gmail.com

e.  I need to have a table runner shortened and would like the name of a seamstress. I know this info has been in the BPE but of course I didn't write anything down. Thanks. Chris White, 142-8067, stillnbaja@gmail.com.

f.  Can someone please email me the Company and contact info. for the ATV rental place in LB that has Can-Am ATV's  pro.ogilvie@sasktel.net    Thanks, Pat

g.  Can someone please tell me the names of Mexican cheeses that would be the closest to our American cheddar cheese and mozzarella cheese. doug.7barx@gmail.com

h.  Since no one is posting rides offered, and no one has replied to my inquiry for a ride, where do you pickup the bus from the airport to Los Barriles, when does it run, and how much does it cost? Thanks,
Jonathan or blumjonathan@gmail.com
