LIGHTNING PROBLEMS? – SwT 119 – BE FREE IS NOT SEA WORTHY AFTER MY SAIL TO PANAMA
Lots of electrical problems after my sail from San Andres to Panama. Not sure if it's a link with the lightning strike that hit the ocean behind me, but sure plausible as it now is easier to tell you what works than what's down. Hopefully, I can fix this but afraid it's going to cost ...

EXPLORING SAN ANDRES – SwT 109 – BIKINI’S BEERS AND LOUD MUSIC IS MAKING THIS A BUSY PARTY ISLAND
It's not possible to ignore the fact this island is much about bikini's beers and loud music. Pretty monoton latin music in my ears and only some reggae now and then. I'm not saying it's wrong just pointing out how it is. Sailing back to the east side of San Andres together with ...
