We just crossed the Panama Canal on Zambezi, and let’s just say… it’s not a lazy Sunday sail. Here’s what caught us off guard: ⛵️ Your boat is not important. You’re just a tiny dot next to the big container ships. Be prepared to get moved around to fit the schedule. 💪 Your line handlers need muscles. The chambers fill fast, the current pulls hard, and keeping the lines tight is real work. Don’t skip arm day 😉 🧑‍✈️ You need to know how to steer in currents. Between the water rushing in and the 300-meter cargo ship powering up in front of you, your rudder needs a steady hand. Now that we’re through the Canal, we have “only” 2,800nm left to sail to our final destination in Canada. Should be doable by September, right? Stay Salty!

Sailed from St, Thomas to Frederiksted... Small town on the west coast protected from the prevailing eastern winds, with Danish Colonial and Victorian architecture. We visited Fort Frederik built in 1752 by Danish monarch (occupied also by Spanish and French) and enjoyed beautiful white sandy beaches. Scuba diving with turtles in turquoise waters was fantastic...
