It is what it is...there is no cruise ship on the planet that allows guests to pick and choose their embarkation and debarkation points unless is it is a month long cruise or one of the residence cruises. No cruise ship sells rooms, slots dining rotation or makes a profit by selling a cruise in this manner. I would be happy to listen to facts if you care to lay them out for us.

If you are pointing to Calderon as your poster boy for Mexican intelligence, this conversation ended long before it started.

Hell, I don't know how smart he is...Harvard thinks he's smart. I'm guessing he's at least as smart as me and you...well, maybe you. I never discussed embarkation points. But Kea is absolutely correct. No one said that 4,000-passenger ships were coming. They said the port would be able to handle vessels that large.

Where in Rosy's post does she state that the cruises will operate any differently than any other "traditional" cruise ship modus operandi, i.e. you board and depart from the same location? In this case, Penasco. Further, where do you get off professing to be a foremost authority regarding all things Mexico? Please state your qualifications so that we can all bow to your imminent intelligence, experience and qualifications.

Whatever size the boats are, I have heard ( and from more than 1 person) they will be used as a means of transporting people port to port, not like a typical, Long Beach to Cabo cruise. There are more way's of making money, (like charging for the service) with a boat than selling trinkets and drinks to the passengers, even people that do jump on and off will buy something on the boat.....It works fine for the airlines.

Still Rosy this is no layup. it is much like a public funded convention center.About half of them are lead weights on the tax payers...stadiums from bond issues too. google these things and the problems pop up. The water issue is another worry.

Of course it isn't a layup. And speaking of convention centers, I'm still looking at this one sideways, at least until I have an idea who's gonna run it and how. I just think comparing it to Boomer Fest is wrong. There's no comparison.

I may be a simpleton when it comes to high finance, but if the Federal government has millions to spend, no matter what the country, it will either get spent or squandered. I'd rather they throw it in this direction and put people to work.

My Father-In Law ( may he rest in peace) once fell of a cruise ship docked. My Mother-in Law ( may she rest in peace) seen him crawl out of the water to meet her on shore. Oh Brother.... True story

Let's develop a bunch of pangas to swarm the ships, and follow them from port to port, selling tacos, T shirts, etc. Should be a real money maker.
