Patch
In the center of this photo is the patch over a previous tear. This was the stress point which let go first and started the whole disintegration of the mainsail.

Fred and Tico watch World Cup
Costa Rica has now won two games in the Soccer World Cup and this town has gone crazy; cars are wearing flags over the hood, honkking horns, people are all dressed in the colors of the country, and everyone is happy. We enjoyed the game ourselves with some loud and enthusiastic supporters at Puerto Azul Marina

American Crocodile
Every time we went out on the water in the dingy we saw these guys. About 3-4 meters long, silently gliding along, looking at us. Once we drove the dingy about 10ft away from one and didn't see it until we were past. He did not submerge until we turned the boat around to go back towards him. One site in the Internet it says they do not attack people or boats. Another site says they do. Who should we believe?

Croc on the move
This one was on a sandbar and got up on a high walk and pranced down to the water as we approached.
