Yes and no. The design is basically the old pier with one additional landing platform. All input was eventually ignored.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Taking a closer look and talking with fishermen, the general consensus is that the new pier and its landing platforms are being built too low. The landing platforms are currently at water level at a time when there are no waves. But during periods of any waves, high tides or mar de fondo the landings will be covered in water and quickly become slimy, thus causing accidents. Also, access to the landings is via a lot of steps. No access for wheelchairs! The landings SHOULD have been built with floating platforms accessible via RAMPS. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.</p>
<p>I also wish the new access to the mini-pier had been paved with <em>adoquín</em> (paving stones) instead of cement allowing the ground to receive and absorb water and to BREATHE.</p>
<p>A new awning has also been placed at the mini-pier so folks can wait in the shade for their boat ride. </p>

<p>Not sure if these Flexifloats are still needed or if they will also soon be trucked out of here like the crane that was on one of them was.<br />
