We had been told that there wasn't a lot of water at CRYC and that sailboats sometimes tilted slightly at severe low tides. Our friend Wayne arrived here ahead of us aboard S/V Learnativity and reported no issues whatsoever. When we arrived we were directed to moor in a much different location than Wayne. This turned out to not be the best place for Samadhi.
Costa Rica Yacht Club manager Carlos was quick put things right. He had us moved to a deeper mooring as soon as the tide was back up. No doubt we will remember this experience- 20 degrees of heel is no way to live in port!
Not to worry, no harm was done to Samadhi or to us. The bottom is soft mud here and we simply floated free once the tide came back in.
