New floating docks
Marina Chiapas is the newest marina in Mexico. We were lucky enough to watch the progress over the past year or so and were impressed by the amount of technology that goes into building a quality marina. The marina construction, managed by ex Huatulco marina manager Enrique Laclette, started in 2010. The grand opening is November 2011, just in time for the rally.
