NAHUEL HUAPI A todo viento

But to feel to pleasure in the lake, the navigator should pay attention at two
circumstances: the wind can blow rudely and the water is frozen.
The rest is all advantages: there is not danger of beachings; the helixes not you
they hook in the garbage; they have more than enough the reference points; there are good roadsteads,
you navigates the whole year and the sailing ships have more than enough wind.
To avoid unpleasant surprises it is fundamental to stay it alerts on those
meteorological changes.
The prefecture transmits in permanent form for the channels 12 or 16.
It is also necessary to pay attention to the barometer: any marked drop is a
I warn certain that soon the winds will arrive.
But there are also vertical gusts that fall of the heights without being announced and that they have
ended up knocking down small sailing ships.
The winds can blow with gusts of more than 80 kilometers per hour, po that that
they should not be minimized. Anyway, already with 50 kilometers prefecture
it lowers the curtain.
The water is of thaw and it doesn't overcome the 10 degrees, a temperature that, without suits
special, nobody can support more than five minutes.
Their specific weight is low and it hinders the flotation (and all that collapses doesn't refloat,
they say there, because the cold freezes and it impedes the formation of gases).
He/she should remember that the wave is short (it cannot be cabalgadda, the blow it is permanent),
that the night sailing is forbidden (the lake is not buoyed) and that the areas of
bigger calm is those of Villa The Narrowness, Brazo Machete, or Last Esperanza.
Contrarily, those of more generous winds are Llao-Llao, Bariloche, Isla Victoria and
Port Blest.
But, before the llegadda of a hard wind, one will always take by hand a protected place
where to throw the anchor.
For that reason nobody should be deprived of traveling him in all their perimeter, voyage that him deman -
he/she will give four days of complete pleasure.

The NAHUEL HUAPI (Island of the tiger in Araucanian) he/she has many points for desembar -
car, to make night or to be provisioned, even with fuel for the cruises.
For these last ones, the veteran ones suggest to have the motor in the best conditions and ,
if it is possible, to endow to the ship of a second motor for emergencies.
When coming closer to the coast it is necessary to take care of some high walls and you last; in certain
cliffs are formed waves of a meter and half in " picadero ", because the wave hits the
stone and it returns in contraola (for example, in The Tablada, peninsula of San Pedro).
During the candle season that goes from September to April, there are yachts and tournaments.
The motor season begins by the middle of November and it finishes by the middle of
April. In winter the sun continues being strong, although the day is short.
In summer, the temperature in the sun it can be from 30 to 35 degrees (and of 12 at 14 to the shade)
It dawns at the 5,30 hours and it at 22 o'clock.
In that station an evening in the lake can be unforgettable if the sailing ship is small and
the love is big. Those that know say that at about seven o'clock, when the wind calms down
the fish sing mientra somehow the sun it sets on fire the waters.
There are not problems to get fuel, be naphtha or gasoil, because the expendios
they are many and well distributed:
The Nautical Club Bariloche, Cumelén, Puerto Pañuelo, Narrowness, for example.
Anyway, it will be been able to inform of places and schedules of load in the Nautical one, in
Tourism, Prefecture or National Parks.

Does candle like the flight, thrown by a boat? He/she is practiced.
Does he/she have whim for the diving? There is in charge of an independent group, in Bariloche.
Him his the hunt sumarina is? Impossible: it is forbidden.
Career of boats tires? Yes. Do I row? Almost with exclusivity, in the club Regatas.
Wind-surf? of course: in Serene Bay, kilometer 12 toward Llao-Llao, and always
with appropriate suit.
Those that look for strong emotions leave the coast of the Nautical Club where the waves are
more amusing.
The permanent fleet of the Nautical one is of about fifty ships, and in the yachts they participate
between fifteen and twenty. If you can take their sailing ship or to be strained in that of a friend, him
we recommend the night yacht, protected by the Prefecture: it is the Yacht of the Moon,
that Victoria goes to the island or to The Narrowness and she includes to spend the night in the place sharing the one
vent among all the participants.
And in train of advice and secrets, a place: White stones, in the Isla Victoria.
To half of the riverside This, in front of Huemul: quincho, bar, good bay to anchor and to happen
there more than one night.
Another fact: in fishing season, for a better provisioning of trouts, frequent
Villa The Narrowness, Cumelén and Nose of the Devil.
If of being fished it tries, remember that it is forbidden the alive bait, be casting, spinning or
trolling, and that the habit has made a law: to use weak line so that the fish, if the one
fisherman is clumsy and he doesn't know how to release, it can break it and to win the battle: nobility forces.
If the best hour to enjoy the lake is when he/she falls the afternoon because those calm down
winds, the best to weigh anchor is at dawn, when the waters are calm.
Of yapa, I give him the following itinerary to continue with a cruise, weighed anchor of
Bariloche.
In two hours of calm march toward the Northwest spends first near the island
Huemul and of the island of the Goats, then in front of Puerto Savanna's bay, in the riverbank
This of the lake.
Care that now are before The Chart, after which we play island Victoria and their Port
Anchorena. In little more than half hour arrive to Puerto Tigre, and in less than two
hours to Puerto Machete.
There he/she seeks advice to stop, to look well and, if it has more than enough time, to anchor and to lower.
The place doesn't have I waste. Then, always skirting the lake, the route leaf indicates
Corner, Last Esperanza, the beautiful and small islands Two Sisters, Drafty,
Peninsula Beatríz, the beautiful Puerto Manzano and finally the Brazo Huemul and another time
island Victoria. The journey is short for who has little time (one day), but too much
beautiful as to hurry so much.
And if in one of those tracts he/she meets with Nahuelito, the monster of the lake, suspect:
these waters have been swept by provided ships of ecosondas that you/they discover until
trunks and rocks and that they never registered a marine monster (or lacustrine).
So that the Nahuelito doesn't exist. But go carefully.
