STARFISH UNDER 4' OF CARIBBEAN WATER
Our second day in the Caribbean was hot and windless with totally calm seas. These seas have many more shallow reefs and shoals that you must be aware of. We scraped bottom (just a tad) as we were pulling into Bocas Yacht Club and Marina. We also found no channel markers or buoys, even though all the charts showed that they existed. Tough navigating!
VIEW FROM QUEST
The view from the marina is charming and colorful. We pulled right up to the fuel dock and got that chore done and are now docked with power (air-conditioning) and water—so nice. The little bar/restaurant here is having “tackos” (tacos) as reported by neighboring boater. We are there for sure!!!

IS THIS PERFECT, OR WHAT??
Another quick fact for the record. Quest traveled 420 nm further East from Portland, Oregon to the Panama Canal than she traveled South. Figure that one!!!
And to think, I only thought I was depressed about leaving on Saturday. It looks like it's absolutely gorgeous!!
ReplyDeleteDid we jump ship a few days too soon or what?
