Somewhere in Nicaragua
For those of you planning a trip down – Remember this – whenever there is a giant hurricane in the gulf of Mexico, we get stormy onshore conditions here. It happened with Ivan last year, Katrina earlier and now again with Rita. Check out the bay in San Juan Del Sur.
Check out how rough it was in the bay – it’s really dangerous for the boats when it gets like this. This is a shot from the “Marina”.
….So dangerous in fact that this big fishing vessel broke free of it’s mooring and washed up on the beach!
When you see the bay looking like this – and ton’s of locals surfing out there. It’s a good idea to get your boat out of the water.
And that’s what we did with the “Dirty Sanchez” – after one failed pass at the trailer – man that was sketchy. More bad weather forecast for tomorrow…
RECENT REPORTS
Hello Tuesday, I checked Colorado in the morning hoping the new swell was going to be showing, but didn’t see much happening yet. So decided to check Panga drops up the beach our local swell magnet. @tonyzphotos reporting.
Hello Monday, we had some rain overnight and some on and off drizzle during the day. This has been making for light winds and a relief from the heat. @tonyzphotos reporting.
Happy Sunday and Father’s Day to all the papas out there. We have some inconsistent surf in the waist to shoulder high range. @tonyzphotos reporting.
