Sliding down to Mexico way
The basic plan for the JR port call at Acapulco is as follows.
Pilot will board the JR at 1000 November 11, 2005 and after a short pilotage we can expect to be alongside starboard side to the quay (which means the gangway will be on the aft end of the vessel) by about 1030-1045. At this time Customs and Immigration Officials will board the Vessel.
The Mexican Authorities are taking their Security responsibilities VERY seriously and the following is an extract from today’s communications: Cruise Ship “Carnival Spirit” will be berthed directly astern of us from 1300 /11th till 0200 / 12th and this increases the risk of a Security Breach. The port will have 15 Private Security personnel on shift 24 hrs per day and utilize CCTV to assist.
There will be armed Mexican Military personnel patrolling 24 hours per day. Mexican navy will be checking the berth using divers and foot patrols 1 hour before our arrival. A Mexican Navy Patrol boat will be on station and enforce a 50 meter exclusion zone around our vessel to seaward.
Should the vessel be required to evacuate due to a security alert then all personnel should muster at La Reyna Park.
No visitors will be allowed on board.
All JR personnel will use Gate No.X ONLY. Picture ID cards or Passports will be required on the quay and at the gate.
JOIDES Resolution is scheduled to depart Acapulco at 1000 November 12, 2005
Have a nice stay...
Alex Simpson, Captain, JOIDES Resolution
