&gt; <br/>
&gt; &gt; as i recall<br/>
&gt; &gt; mexico is basically just like canada in reserving its entire maritime<br/>
&gt; &gt; territory to the federal government<br/>
&gt; &gt; except that canadian federal waters end & provincial territory begins<br/>
&gt; &gt; at the low tide line<br/>
&gt; &gt; whereas mexican federal maritime territory extends as far as the high<br/>
&gt; &gt; tide line plus 10 or 20 horizontal meters of beach above & beyond that<br/>
&gt; &gt;<br/>
&gt; &gt; or in other words it is mexican federal seas plus beaches all in one<br/>
&gt; &gt;<br/>
&gt; &gt; the only catch is i cant recall whether it is 10 or 20 meters of beach<br/>
&gt; <br/>
&gt; I know this was discussed in a message about the Texas-Tamaulipas-Mexican<br/>
&gt; tripoint being exposed once when the Rio Grande has turned into a wadi down<br/>
&gt; in that area.<br/>
<br/>
 </span></blockquote>right<br/>
this is the ironic boca chica or little mouth of the rio grand<br/>
where i once walked across almost without getting wet<br/>
<br/>
lately it has been mostly bone dry tho<br/>
so all you have to do to make this tripoint is measure 20 meters up the <br/>
wadi thalweg from the limit of tidal penetration<br/>
& voila <br/>
