    I was asked to comment on the docking in Concorde. At present there are 2 boats in Concorde, the rest is open for anyone. The large blue boat is habitated by a nice guy, Vercaro, who looks after the boat.
    My boat is at Chacachacari, which is a town about 33km from Porlamar with 2 large boatyards, mostly for large fishing boats. They have 2 travel lifts. Cost on the hard is US$10 a day.
    Also as far foreign boats go, it is safe here providing you use common sense. At present the situation for local people is bad here. They are hungry and have little money as inflation has wiped out their ability to buy cheap food. So if you have dollars it’s good living. Not many things are under a dollar now, except petrol, diesel and water and electricity and mobile phone plans.
    We get 2 or 3 foreign boats a month here, French and German mostly.

    My boat is on the hard at the moment in Chacachacari. There are two boatyards there and it costs US$10 a day (or 10000bs) to stay there. I have had to pull the motor out and rebuild the motor and trans. Price of fuel is now 6bs a litre, but diesel is still 5bs for about 56 litres. All prices are higher now as inflation is out of control. If you have dollars its cheap, but the Venezuelans are hurting

    I live in Margarita Island in Porlamar the Capital. Yachts need to check in at Concord, about 10 minutes from Porlamar. The Port Captain is called Pedro and Immigration is Eduardo. It will cost you 23 dollars for your 3 months stay for the boat. This has to be paid by bank transfer to a Government bank account, and the receipt to be given to the captain of the port. You get 3 days to do the transfer. Always carry copies of your passport here, not originals. You need to make copies of passports, ship documents etc. for the Port Captain.
    Concord has 1 chandlery, but very limited parts and items here as no one has dollars to import. If you require anything it’s best to get it on the net. The 2 boatyards are in Chacachacari and they also have one chandlery very well stocked. Labour costs are about 3 to 4 dollars a day for boat work.
    The exchange rate is at present 897 to the dollar. The island has many taxis and the rates are good. It is safe here mostly if you don’t splash your money around and act normal – not like a rich tourist. Do not carry many dollars around the town. They don’t like small notes here. If you have dollars in cash and you exchange them, make sure they take a photocopy of your notes in front of you. And give you a copy, just so no one comes back at you for being counterfeit.
    Vegetables and fish are cheap as are the restaurants (particularly Chinese). Fresh bread and cakes are also cheap. One loaf of bread with six rolls will cost about 680bs (under a dollar). A large pizza will set you back 2 dollars, beer about 15 to 20 cents, a Chinese meal about 2000bs. The town is full of supermarkets and shops: Sambil ,Costa Azul, La Vela Rattan plaza. There are bars along the beach in Concorde and there are bottle shops everywhere. There is a scarcity of flour and milk and corn flour and rice at present . When they have some the lines are very long and people queue at 4am in the morning. Some medicines are not available and nappies are not available. There is a shortage of most basics but if you have money you can buy them at higher prices.
    Petrol: 65 litres costs 10cents. I normally fill my Jeep and pay 10bs. Oil is plentiful here so is paint and most things are procurable if you hunt around. Water is buyable in large bottles, but Concord has no water. The boatyards do. Gas is very cheap, but they have large plastic bottles here and to fill them costs less than 5 cents. The telephone is cheap – under a $1 a month – but you need to get a chip – Movistar is probably the best.
    My boat has been anchored in Concord for 1 year with no problems. As I live in my house I have someone on board at night for security. I have not had any problems apart from one night someone tried to cut the dinghy loose.
