Today we see just how quickly things can go wrong, even in just a 30-knot squall if your anchor is not adequate for your boat, or not set properly. The boat instantly ended up on the reef behind him, and then his subsequent attempts to motor off of the reef resulted in his propellor exploding into 3 pieces and falling to the sea floor under the boat… not good! At the same time, we also get to see just how quickly the cruising community springs to action to help a sailor in trouble. The result was favorable, and everyone came out unscathed for the most part.. thanks to all who participated on that day!
Cheers,
Captain Rick, Maddy, Ricci, and Tiki

We Couldn’t Slow Down — Squalls from San Blas to San Andrés | SSL780
Yesterday turquoise meant danger under the keel. Today the danger was the sky. We left San Blas under a wall of rain, ran a thrill ride of squalls and following seas into Linton Bay — then the next morning pointed at San Andrés. 27 hours. About 9 knots average. Surfing past 10 when the ocean picked...

The San Blas Islands are one of the most beautiful places we have ever sailed. They are also one of the most technically demanding. Over 100 kilometres of coral reef protects this archipelago — and that same reef has ended a lot of sailing dreams. After 28 hours of open Caribbean, we arrived in Gun...
