CRUISING NOTES - Things to Know Before You Go Mcintosh / Mccaleb CRUISING NOTES - Things to know before you go McIntosh / McCaleb CRUISING NOTES Things to know before you go Tenth Edition Nora and Phil McCaleb Carole and Pat McIntosh CRUISING NOTES - Things to know before you go McIntosh / McCaleb About the authors -- Both the McCalebs and the McIntoshes have over 45 years of sailing under their belts. The wisdom the authors have accumulated is gained from having sailed thousands of miles of cruising and some exotic landfalls. Phil and Nora have chartered in New Zealand and the Caribbean; the four of them chartered catamarans in Belize. Carole has crewed from Tahiti to Hawaii, Pat, from Hawaii to San Francisco. Their cruising has taken them from the waters of Canada and Washington south to Panama. They’ve spent memorable times in the Mexican and Central American waters. In addition to that, both couples have made multiple trips up and down the coasts of California and Mexico, including doing Baja Ha Ha’s and Baja Bashes. Desiring to share the experiences and collective knowledge they’ve gained together along with the input from other cruisers, they have conducted cruising seminars together for several years, and have helped prepare thousands of other sailors to go cruising. Their seminar notes, input from question and answer sessions and input from many cruising Pat and Carole McIntosh friends ultimately culminated in the creation of this book, eight editions ago. They now invite you to sit back, relax, peel back the front cover,* and join them as they help you prepare for a “sail of a lifetime” down the west coast of North and Central America, or wherever the wind blows! * ”It’s about time all this stuff is available in one place!” * Strictly Sail Pacific – boat show program 2014 CRUISING NOTES Things to know before you go Tenth Edition Nora and Phil McCaleb and Carole and Pat McIntosh Encore Press, Sacramento, California www.encorepress.com CRUISING NOTES - Things to know before you go McIntosh / McCaleb Copyright © 2020 by Nora McCaleb, Phil McCaleb, Carole McIntosh, Pat McIntosh.

CRUISING NOTES – Things to know before you go began to germinate many years ago, even before we had any idea it was taking shape. We were fortunate to begin boating when we were young. Like all young families raising kids we were trying to figure out what we “shoulda known before we ( fill-in-the-blank )”. And naturally, as with most people, that “figuring-out” continued right into getting ready to go cruising, long after “young” had passed us by. It continued, unseen and unexpectedly growing, and began to sprout between 1993 – 2006 as our preparations to go cruising were underway. Just like with most “seasoned” people when venturing into the details of a more demanding venture or hobby, we felt the need for some tips as to what lies ahead. Fortunately, both families had had a series of boats prior to seriously thinking about going cruising, and we both happened to belong to “trailer- sailing” groups that included pretty knowledgeable sailors who had done some cruising. We began moving into larger sailboats, sailing on San Francisco Bay and chartering in many venues. The good fortune continued as we became the recipients of lots of good advice and help from many people before we actually shoved-off and headed south. Even more fortunately, at the time we happened to be members of the same sailing group on Folsom Lake just east of Sacramento, the Sacramento Catalina 22 Fleet 4. As it turned out, five sailing couples from Fleet 4 had decided to go cruising in 2005. Phil and Nora McCaleb were the only ones who 7 CRUISING NOTES - Things to know before you go McIntosh / McCaleb made it out the Golden Gate that year. The rest of us, Randy and Nancy Roland, Chris and Robyn Parker, Paul and Marilyn Butler, and Carole and Pat McIntosh made it south to Mexico with the Baja Ha Ha in 2006. The “book” surprised us when it actually began to take shape and blossomed out of necessity in 2009, after our return from cruising. We were asked to present a seminar for sailors getting ready to sail south at the “STRICTLY SAIL PACIFIC” Boat Show at Jack London Square in Oakland, CA. That first year we put together and passed out a couple dozen pages of notes stapled together.

  • Alameda, a Geographical History, by Imelda Merlin
    Alameda A Geographical History by Imelda Merlin Friends of the Alameda Free Library Alameda Museum Alameda, California 1 Copyright, 1977 Library of Congress Catalog Card Number: 77-73071 Cover picture: Fernside Oaks, Cohen Estate, ca. 1900. 2 FOREWORD My initial purpose in writing this book was to satisfy a partial requirement for a Master’s Degree in Geography from the University of California in Berkeley. But, fortunate is the student who enjoys the subject of his research. This slim volume is essentially the original manuscript, except for minor changes in the interest of greater accuracy, which was approved in 1964 by Drs. James Parsons, Gunther Barth and the late Carl Sauer. That it is being published now, perhaps as a response to a new awareness of and interest in our past, is due to the efforts of the “Friends of the Alameda Free Library” who have made a project of getting my thesis into print. I wish to thank the members of this organization and all others, whose continued interest and perseverance have made this publication possible. Imelda Merlin April, 1977 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The writer wishes to acknowledge her indebtedness to the many individuals and institutions who gave substantial assistance in assembling much of the material treated in this thesis. Particular thanks are due to Dr. Clarence J. Glacken for suggesting the topic. The writer also greatly appreciates the interest and support rendered by the staff of the Alameda Free Library, especially Mrs. Hendrine Kleinjan, reference librarian, and Mrs. Myrtle Richards, curator of the Alameda Historical Society. The Engineers’ and other departments at the Alameda City Hall supplied valuable maps an information on the historical development of the city.

  • In Jalisco State, Costalegre Poised As Next Luxury Hot Spot
    THE TRAVEL INDUSTRY'S TRUSTED VOICE News & Featured Destinations Our Voices Resources Hotel & Cruise INSIGHT MEXICO INSIGHT In Jalisco state, Costalegre poised as next luxury hot spot By Meagan Drillinger | Sep 09, 2019 When it comes to luxury enclaves in Mexico, there are a few that stand out: Riviera Maya/Tulum, Los Cabos and Punta Mita, for example. But the coast of Jalisco between Puerto Vallarta and Manzanillo is on track to become the next luxury hideaway in Meagan Drillinger the country. "This has been one of the main points of the agenda for the governor of Jalisco," said German Ralis, Jalisco's tourism secretary. "We want to make Costalegre the new brand of the Pacific coast -- to be the best. [The government] is putting a lot of infrastructure to make it one of the best in the world." Among the developments: a plan for a new highway that will decrease the time from Puerto Vallarta to Chalacatepec in Costalegre from two hours to 25 minutes. With this highway, visitors who want to explore beyond Puerto Vallarta's beaches will be able to quickly drive south to off-the-beaten-path locations such as Isla Cocinas and Isla Pajarera. The highway would improve airport transfers from Puerto Vallarta to Careyes, which is an exclusive private luxury estate in Costalegre. But there's much more to come in that section of the state, as well. Major innovations and new properties are in the works, including Four Seasons Tamarindo, which will open in 2020 with 160 rooms and a golf course. There will also be a new Zoetry resort (the first in Jalisco) from AMResorts.

  • Gambling in the Mid-Nineteenth-Century Latin American Social Imaginary
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Carolina Digital Repository GAMBLING IN THE MID-NINETEENTH-CENTURY LATIN AMERICAN SOCIAL IMAGINARY Emily Joy Clark A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Romance Studies (Spanish). Chapel Hill 2016 Approved by: Rosa Perelmuter Juan Carlos González Espitia Emilio del Valle Escalante Irene Gómez Castellano John Charles Chasteen © 2016 Emily Joy Clark ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Emily Joy Clark: Gambling in the Mid-Nineteenth-Century Latin American Social Imaginary (Under the direction of Rosa Perelmuter) Economic themes appear in many nineteenth-century Latin American narratives, but the representation of gambling and other forms of speculative capitalist commerce, such as investment, trade, and mining, is a largely unexplored area of critical literary analysis. This dissertation examines the depiction of gambling and other games of chance, as well as financially-speculative endeavors, in eight texts from the mid-nineteenth century throughout Hispanic America, including José Joaquín Fernández de Lizardi’s El Periquillo Sarniento (1816), Eduardo Gutiérrez’s Juan Moreira (1879), Rosario Orrego’s Alberto el jugador (1860), Teresa González de Fanning’s Regina (1886), Gertrudis Gómez de Avellaneda’s Sab (1841), Alberto Blest Gana’s Martín Rivas (1862), José Ramón de Betancourt’s Una feria de la caridad en 183… (1841, 1858), and José Milla’s Los Nazarenos (1867). In the four chapters of the dissertation, I analyze four different perspectives on gambling and its repercussions in society as it applies to gender (Chapters 1 and 2), social class (Chapter 3), and the role of the citizen in post-independence Latin American nation states (Chapter 4).

  • Geographical Research on Tourism in Mexico Is High and Has 15 Been for Many Years
    Tourism Geographies 4(3), 2002, 255–260 1 2 Commentary: geographical research 3 4 on tourism in Mexico 5 6 7 8 9 Klaus J. Meyer-Arendt 10 Department of Environmental Studies, University of West Florida, USA 11 12 13 14 The level of geographical research on tourism in Mexico is high and has 15 been for many years. In a recent synopsis of tourism geography research 16 in Latin America and the Caribbean, Mexico was identied as the leading 17 country in the region in terms of the volume of tourism geography publi- 18 cations produced, as well as theses and dissertations (Meyer-Arendt 2002). 19 At least two major reasons account for this: (1) Mexico is close and easily 20 accessible for North American researchers, and (2) geography as a disci- 21 pline is quite healthy in Mexico, and a small contingent of tourism geog- 22 raphers has developed considerable research attention on the major tourist 23 destinations there. 24 Proximity has been a large factor in the popularity of Mexico as a 25 destination for eld research by American and Canadian geographers, 26 especially since the early years of Carl Sauer’s ‘Berkeley school’. While 27 the Berkeley cultural geographers studiously avoided areas impacted by 28 tourism, geographers today are increasingly receptive to understanding the 29 role of tourism – at traditional tourist destinations, at newly created 30 touristic growth poles, and in isolated regions that may have ethnic 31 or wilderness appeal to alternative tourists. Some North American geog- 32 raphers have investigated tourism topics along the US–Mexico border, 33 whereas others venture further and deeper into the interior for their 34 tourism research.

  • Cruise Planners
    Sandy White [email protected] www.sandlertravel.com 832-305-7825 PUERTO VALLARTA, JALISCO, MEXICO OVERVIEW Introduction Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, masterfully plays the part of a remote tropical getaway, even as it grows into a larger city that's connected to the outside world by multinational chain stores and a steady stream of jets and cruise ships. Puerto Vallarta's success has a lot to do with looks. However, in recent years, unchecked development along every inch of its beach has gradually turned the once-quaint fishing village enjoyed by the moneyed few into a mass-market destination. Still, there remains much beauty in Vallarta (as it is known to the locals and habitues) and the coast to its northwest. Whitewashed walls and terra-cotta-tiled roofs are nestled along Banderas Bay, with the ornate crown of the Church of Our Lady of Guadalupe serving as a focal point. The lush, green foothills of the Sierra Madre Mountains to the east make for a beautiful and dramatic backdrop. Puerto Vallarta's style is another key. Even as more and more travelers have arrived, and more and more hotels have been built, it has somehow managed to retain—or at least appears to retain—a cultured grace that's rare in heavily touristed areas. Artists, architects, writers and chefs flourish in this rarified climate of tropical creativity. The restaurants, galleries and shops there are some of the finest in the country, drawing local talent from Mexico City and Guadalajara, and farther afield from Italy, Switzerland, Canada, the U.S. and elsewhere.

Sager, Department of History Departmental Member Dr. Patrick A. Dunae, Department of History Departmental Member In the years between 1789 and 1792 the shores of what is now British Columbia were opened to European scrutiny by a series of mostly Spanish expeditions. As the coastline was charted and explored by agents of European empires, the Pacific Northwest captured the attention of Europe. In order to carry out these explorations the Spanish relied on what turned out to be an experiment in ‗gentle‘ imperialism that depended on the support of the indigenous ―colonized‖. This thesis examines how the Spanish envisioned their imperial space on the Northwest Coast and particularly how that space was shaped through the exploration of the Salish Sea.
