In Spanish, Puerto Vallarta is often shortened to Vallarta, while English speakers call the city P.V. for short. In internet shorthand the city is often referred to as PVR, after the International Air Transport Association airport code for its Gustavo Diaz Ordaz International Airport.

Good nav lights are literally a life saver, I have really good led ones that are visible form 3 nautical miles on mine since I night fish almost exclusivly. Have almost hit several people who didn't have lights on at night.
 Deck. The deck is the foundation of a pontoon boat and must be in excellent condition if you hope to have a long lifespan for your pontoon boat. Walk around the deck and check for sponginess that could be a sign of rot.Get under the pontoon boat with a flashlight and hunt for any indication that the wood foundation is weak.f so, you'll have to tear down the pontoon boat in its entirety. To do so, you'll need to tear off aluminum fascia and unscrew or cut off the bolts that hold the deck to the aluminum cross channels. If the deck is questionable, tear it out and replace it with CCA-treated plywood.
