Cruise Dock in Potosi

The best I understand at this time, Johnny is that Fonatur no longer has any concessions in the area. Hopefully they are gone for good. Of course that is my opinion and not endorsed by everyone, but I do not understand why not.

Does Fonatur still plan to go ahead with this project ? I've heard that since vacancy rates are up, there is less interest in going forward with the Cruise dock. I personally hope this plan is dead in the water since it would negatively alter the way of life and charm of Barra de Potosi. I would appreciate any current info on this. ....JB

Dead in the water... for now.

Fonatur Operadora Portuaria SA de CV had their concesión cancelled. End of THAT story.

But the ex-mayor and now Diputado Federal Lic. Silvano Blanco Deaquino wants to build a cruise ship pier at Playa La Majahua between Zihuatanejo and Ixtapa, essentially reviving interest in the same parcel of land whose development was abandoned after discovering one of its investors was the disgraced brother of former Presidente Salinas. So it looks like there's some still some slimy interests around thinking of the millions of pesos to be made from such a project, a major temptation for folks with nothing better to do but invent obras públicas to skim from.
