  Preheat oven to 325 degrees.  Pat crumb mixture into 9    
inch pie plate and bake 10 minutes. Cool completely.  Peel  
and slice mangoes.  Puree pulp in food processor and set    
aside.  Mix together water and gelatin. Let it stand a few  
minutes to soften gelatin.  In saucepan whisk egg yolks     
with lime juice and 1/4 cup sugar.  Cook over medium heat,  
whisking constantly, until mixture is thick and hot.  Do    
not boil.                                                   
Whisk in softened gelatin for 30 seconds.  Pour mixture     
into a bowl and stir in mango puree and ginger.  Chill,     
stirring occasionally, until mixture mounds slightly when   
dropped from spoon.  Beat whipping cream with 1/4 cup sugar 
until stiff peaks form.  Fold stiff whipped cream into      
mango mixture.  Gently scrape filling into crust.  Chill a  
few hours.  Sprinkle lime zest around outside edge of pie   
for garnish.
