Practical
Coordinate approximate: Noonsite's Puerto Lindo position; Noonsite says Panamarina lies 2 nm from Isla Linton toward Isla Grande, so take the exact spot from your chart. No docks: moorings for 28 monohulls and 27 multihulls. Entrance channel and moorings 2–4 m; the channel has green (starboard) and red (port) buoys, the first four with flags, unlit at night. Two white stand-by buoys in the middle; call VHF 69 and a tender will help (Mon–Sat 8 am–12 pm and 2–5 pm; no assistance Sundays or out of hours). Long-term storage yard with haul-out trailer; 24-hour security with 32 cameras added after thefts in Oct 2015; laundry, cold showers, restaurant, workshop, water, dinghy dock, weekly gas-bottle fills, garbage.
