Puerto Calero
is a delightful 250-berth marina. In every detail it is evident that
this is a well-managed
establishment. The facilities are well planned, the security good,
and the surroundings beautiful. After meeting the owner and designer
of Puerto Calero, Senor Jose Calero Rodriguez we better understand
the passion that went into the design of this world-class establishment.
Senor Calero or "Pepe," has designed a five star destination
resort, and he is well on the way to achieving his goal. Both a golf
course and luxury hotel are in the works.
The marina staff functions well, mainte nance
is excellent,
and the support services to visitors are convenien t
and attractive. We w ere
especially impressed with the water quality in the marina,
illustrated here
by the young girl feeding the fish in the clear clean water.
We feel
comfortable leaving Sea Gem in such a secure p lace
for five months. W
e plan our return
in late December for our Atlantic crossing. Senor Calero introduced
us to h is
handsome son Jose, who is also very interested in the complex that
his father is building. Opportunities for recreation, location for
a holiday home and investment possibilities abound
on Lanzarote. Europeans are very conscious of the Canary destination
and I see possibilities in the future for Americans to "discover"
this destination retreat.
M.A.S.T. (Marine Application System Technology) owned and operated
by Brian and Maria Ash is on site at Puerto Calero to co-ordinate
all types of yacht work. Brian, his expert technician,
Jan, and his wife Maria, inspire confidence when they run their flag
up on your boat. Their flag designates the boats they care for so
that the marina staff can call immediately if they see anything wrong
as they make their routine rounds.
Homecoming is sweet especially when it means being reunited with family.
December will come quickly and we plan to be on the sea crossing the
Atlantic.
We have appreciated all the communications from friends and readers.
