AboutLorena Milanes Expertise I can answer questions regarding Panama, its people, culture, places to visit, places to watch out for, hotels to stay, how much your taxi fare should be... specific information on getting around on a safe manner.
Experience I was born and raised in Panama, educated in American schools. Since I enjoy all related to Panama history, I try to keep myself updated on local happenings in the subject. I also enjoy traveling and the internet seems a wonderful tool to use, specially when you are your own guide (which I usually am)- so I am just willing to give some of the help I have received back.

Question Good afternoon. I am planning on bringing my 28' bertram( fishing boat) from florida to the pacific coast of panama to hopefully start a fishing charter business there. I was wondering who or what agency to speak to on this matter to do this legally, and what costs i could expect. I also hold a a us coast guard master's license and would like to know if i would be able to work down there as a tug boat captain or any other related maritime field as I expect that the charter business will not make much money for a few years until a clientele base is established. i would eventually like to live there permanently. any help would be appreciated. Thanks Ken
Answer Hi Ken,
I am not familiar with this activity, but I think what you need is orientation from a lawyer. A friend of mine who is Canadian used a local Lawyer Mrs. Mata Kelly, their site is www.mata-kelly.com
Hopefully they can help you out.
Good luck.
Lorena
