Playing tourist in Cayman, swimming with stingrays, playing underwater hockey and eating jerk chicken. Wow, people are really social here on the island, there is something happening every day!

Sailing alone from Cuba to Cayman Island was a short overnight sail with good wind and moderate sea state. I decided to stop in Grand Cayman to split the voyage down to Panama.
I was positively surprised by the zero formality fees, but not so impressed by...
Time for solo sailing again! Anna had to fly back to Germany and since it was already May, hurricane season was about to start and I had to sail back to Panama.

Anna's last stop on her vacation in Cuba was Havana. We strolled through the streets for hours and soaked up all the different impressions.
It's time for Anna to go home and I will head back to Trinidad to reunite with my good old Karl.

Hey everyone,
due to the craziness of prepping for crossing the Panama Canal and because I did not meet anyone that could deliver data to Germany, the upcoming episodes have been delayed a little. The new material is on its way now, and I hope we can be b...
We will enter the Pedro Miguel locks in about an hour and Miraflores locks probably around two hours from now and then the massive doors will open and let Karl into the Pacific!!!
There will be a live feed on my private Facebook page www.facebook.com/nike...
Cuba had been on my bucket list for a long long time and I nearly had to leave Karl behind to meet my friend Anna on time in Havanna...so it was even more exciting when everything did work out in the end and I got to sail from Isla Mujeres to Isla Juventud...
Another beautiful week in Isla Mujeres and surrounding. Maria and me went for another bike ride with her mother Nancy and visited some of the spots we had not seen yet.
And we also did a little road trip to the Maya ruins in Coba and Tulum which was a fun ...
After four nights at sea, I arrived in Isla Mujeres (Mexiko), the Island of Women. My friend Maria's parents live there on their boat Rejoice and Maria flew in from Panama to visit us.
It was great to be able to take out my Brompton bike again and cruise ...
Around 400nm from Roatan (Bay Islands, Honduras) to Isla Mujeres (Mexiko) in four nights and five days. So far the longest I have ever been at sea.
Naturally, there have been mixed feelings throughout the trip. But because it ended with a beautiful speedy...

Sorry if this was not clear, but the shirts were ...
Finally, I am back to solo sailing, grooving slowly into it by doing small daytrips along the coast of Roatan. Karl and me are prepping ourselves for the next bigger passage up to Mexiko and I am exploring the beautiful bays of Roatan with my new kayak!

We had a smooth day trip (starting under engine but later beautifully tacking along) over to Roatan, Tom got his work done amd we explored the island a bit.
Time is flying like usual and it is already time for Tom to head back to Guatemala and I have to g...
On the way to Roatan, we decided to do a little stopover in Utila. The sail there was one of Karl's fastest ever and we ended up having to heave to for a couple of hours because we were way faster than expected.
Unfortunately, I have to drop of Tom very s...
Tom has a job to do on the island of Roatan, so Kalr and me gave him a lift there, stopping at two little islands of Belize. It's beautiful to be out and about again, feeling the wind and swinging at anchor.
Enjoy, Nike & Karl
