Usually you radio TYC and they send a dinghy out to guide you in. (Some of the inner marks are a little off,) But the manager was busy and didn't hear our hail. Our friends on Capaz and Blue Bottle also didn't hear us (we wanted to ask the pass coordinates, because the GPS still worked). We rummaged around for the paper chart (among the dozens on board). But we didn't find that particular chart. Our French cruising guide has a detail of the bay, but it's cut off right at the entrance pass...Great!"
