PLEASE NOTE: THE “Graphic Nudity NC+ rating” is ridiculous. There is one long distance shot of a lady kite surfing topless. It’s so far away, difficult to tell gender. This is an excellent destination sailing video that all audiences will enjoy.
A film by Bob Steadman with Kaye Nottbusch
Join Bob and Kaye aboard their 36 foot sloop, “Bettie” as they cruise from Los Angeles to the Bahamas via the Panama Canal. This is a fast-paced documentary with gorgeous photography that will give you a first hand look at the cruising lifestyle.
Visit the sparsely populated offshore islands of Baja California, take a dinghy tour of Tenecatita’s mangrove. Check out daily life in Manzanillo, Mexico, and the churches and ancient ruins in Oaxaca. Visit Huatulco’s pristine bays then sail across the dreaded Gulf of Tunantepec to El Salvador’s protected estuaries. Stop in Costa Rica for spectacular diving then hi-line through the rain forest canopy. Transit the Panama Canal and cruise up a jungle river. Stop in historic Portobello where Spanish treasure ships once docked. Sail among the remote San Blas Islands and visit with indigenous Indians. Make a port call in the cruisers’ crossroad city of Cartegena, Columbia. Avoid near disaster at Isla San Andres. Stop in the beautiful Bay Islands of Honduras then sail to the Bahamas for the famous Family Island regatta.

About “Bettie”
“Bettie” is based on a Cascade 36 hull. It was custom molded for Bob by Yacht Constructors in Portland Oregon back in 1978. Four years and lots and lots of man hours later Bob splashed her. “Bettie” has a raised freeboard that allows for a flush deck design. Bettie continues to cruise with her new owners, a young couple currently exploring the pacific. See their blog at bettiedelmar.blogspot.com/
