After what feels like weeks of waiting, we are finally putting some miles under the keel again. We're on our way to Guna Yala (the San Blas islands), sailing upwind along the North coast of Panama. We haven't done a great deal of upwind sailing on this voyage so far, but that's about to change - Antigua is 1000 miles directly upwind, and the Caribbean trade winds are strong, squally, and often bring big seas. Today is good practice for us, beating into a relatively comfortable 15 - 18 knots with moderate seas, 2 reefs in, 5 - 6 kn boat speed, and ironing out all sorts of little issues that come up.

It’s not enough to have a ditch bag—you need to be able to reach it instantly, in the dark, under stress, and possibly through smoke. Where you store it, and how your crew is trained to access it, matters just as much as what’s inside. 📗 Get My Book: https://bethecaptain.com
