Arrival/Departure procedures
Submit any details about advance notification of arrival, etc. We tried to contact any major ports via VHF 16 while cruising down the coast from Ecuador. We never made contact, however we kept a radio log with Position, course, speed, time and date of all attempts and or successful contacts.
We notified the Yacht Club Peruano (www.yachtclubperuano.com) prior to our arrival via email. About 15 miles out we notified TRAMAR, the port control on VHF 16/13 and once again when we arrived at the yacht club. Once we arrived at the yacht clubs mooring field, we contacted them via VHF channel 68. We were met by a launch and led to a mooring. We met the manager of the club, who was very helpful and walked us through the entry process. They do not get many visiting yachts here and the authorities are not accustomed with dealing with them.
The yacht club was very welcoming and fuel was available from their dock, or via jerry can from a local station. We were granted one week free stay.
