2009 02 Zihuat - Puerto Quetzal-147

Puerto Quetzal is avoided by most cruisers as it’s an industrial port. Though we arrived at night (very easy well marked, nice condiditions), we were a bit surprised to see the USCG Cutter “Chase” right next to us at the cruise terminal dock. The sailors were partying up at the restaurant and it seemed like some scene out of “Apocalypse Now”. The sailors were all very nice. They’re job is mostly drug interdiction. Here for four days. we got to know a few of the Coasties and had a great time.
