Panama City Marinas or Yacht Clubs

[Pacific]

I'm researching marinas near Panama City and am becoming confused. I'm told that the name of the Flamenco Yacht Club is actually " Fuerte Amador Resort & Marina", yet when I try to access their website I go around in circles, always coming back to links to 'www.flamenco-island.com' which is inactive.

Then I tried finding information about the Balboa Yacht Club. Most information talks about it burning down, but some recent sites refer to beautiful facilities and racing programs.

Can someone who is/has been there recently please fill me in? Are either or both active? Good dock facilities? Active websites with current information?

Thanks very much.

My boat is moored at Taboga (7 miles off shore) of Panama City. Here is the cruisers information you need.

There are very good moorings areas (free) on both sides of the causeway-BUT, weather determines which side you anchor.
