    Gloria Marina charges US$ 200/day for 43 ft. Anchor off and take the dinghy to ICRJ to ask… they will tell you visitors are NOT welcome, please leave.

    Clearing in proved impossible: Policia Federal downtown says that they do not do that, one must go to the international airport 30 km. away. At the airport, they say they don’t clear in sailors.

    The Capitania dos Portos is totally unreachable because of city reconstruction. Find the antique submarine and you are there. Good luck!
