Sailing Panama from Bocas del Toro towards the San Blas Islands, our overnight passage quickly turns into a much bigger adventure than we expected…
We leave Bocas and set sail overnight for Linton Bay, but in the middle of the night our engine suddenly dies. It turns out our fuel gauge has been lying to us and we’ve completely run out of diesel.
With our plans out the window, we divert to Colón where a couple of nights in the marina actually gives us a much-needed reset before continuing east.
But when we finally make it to Linton Bay to check out of Panama, we discover we can’t properly complete the process there — and apparently we should have done it while we were back in Colón. Now we’re left with a decision: sail all the way back, or continue towards Colombia and deal with our visa situation at the border.
Then things get even more uncomfortable.
While anchored in Linton Bay, we hear that another sailor was boarded the previous night and pushed around while thieves tried to steal from their boat. With nowhere else practical to go, we're left anchored on the outskirts of the bay feeling pretty exposed… and spend the night with a baseball bat beside the bed just in case! ☠️
Definitely not the relaxing start to our journey towards the San Blas Islands that we had planned.
