Best period to visit the San Blas islands ranges from November to August. Leaving the out the months of September and October might be a good idea due to the rain and squalls that occasionally appear in the region. The Archipelago of San Blas and the more than 365 islands that compose it is known to be the best and very last untouched Caribbean sailing destination. We mentioned in other posts how Panama has no recorded hurricanes and no major storms like for example the windward islands, including the BVIs, USVIs, Bahamas, St Maarten, Antigua and Barbuda, etc. This point might seem irrelevant, but it is not. Hurricanes are something very serious that can wipe out entire fleets like it die some years ago in the BVIs As said , luckily, San Blas and the whole Panama is not in the way of such destruction. Adverse climatological episodes in San Blas, although not common, can happen. Tropical storms or the famous local "chocosana" or "culopollo" are local storms that can occur from May to October, originate in Colombia and run through the whole San Blas to later continue up to Costa Rica . This phenomenon brings rain, thunder and wind to the San Blas region and can last up to 45 minutes.

En esta ocasión hemos ido al puerto de Punta Lagoa a hacer una inspección de la jarcia firme, jarcia de labor y el palo de un velero Jeanneau Sun Odissey 409. Al llegar me encuentro con un barco muy bien cuidado por sus armadores. Una limpieza perfecta. Tener el barco limpio ayuda a no tener averías. Cuanta más limpieza, menos corrosión. Tenlo claro. Lo primero que hago es poner el tensiómetro de jarcia en los obenques. Deberían tener una tensión del 15% de su carga de ruptura y están al 12%. Opto por darle un poco más de tensión. En cuanto al centrado, está perfecto. A los obenques bajos les doy una tensión del 12%. Subo al palo y me encuentro unos rayazos producidos por el grillete de la driza de la mayor. Corrosión en el soporte de la antena del radar, un trozo de cinta en la roldana de la driza de génova... Pero todo en muy buen estado. Si quieres que te inspeccione tu barco, o si quieres algún tipo de trabajo como trimar el palo, consejos para la navegación o hasta un cambio de jarcia, contacta conmigo en 607907454 o txemacapitan@gmail.com
