SSL668 ~ Collision alert at Sea !
We finally got our weather window to sail to the San Blas Islands of Panama! After being holed up in Portobelo for several days waiting for the opposing wind and waves to drop, we get a day of calm wind to make it around the headland to Linton Bay where we stop to get a new brace made for our wind generator pole.. then with a favorable forecast for our departure, we set sail for the San Blas Islands and have a great sail on a beautiful sea.. aside from being on a collision course with a huge freighter, everything was perfect!
Thanks as always for watching everyone, we hope you enjoy the video!
Cheers,
Capitan Rick, Maddy, Ricci, and TIKI

San Blas reefs: charts can be 50 m off

And even the best charts have offsets, so your position on the chart can be out ...

First test of the Teslong TD450S two-way articulating inspection camera aboard Sophisticated Lady. We were running a hose for our new PureOcean Marine Pro140 watermaker and it kept catching somewhere we couldn't see. So we put the camera in the hole and looked around: it was blocked by foam, an...
