Nearly there

Position: 9.768, -79.085

Nearly there now, we think we'll get in to Colón at around 5.00pm today. We'll meet our agent there who will help us get through the Canal. Not sure how long that will take. Could be a day or two, or as much as ten days - just depends on paperwork, how many boats are in line to go through, and how the stars are aligned. We'll find out more when we meet our agent. Winds eased since yesterday, so it's good sailing again now.

Just coz your having such a good time in the Carribean I thought I'd arrange an observer trip for you on return. It's on the pride of the fleet (6.5m), built in 1965,long drop over the gunnel, 20 day trip. Sound enticing? I have a shirt for you to wear too with "I love stink boats!" written on it, just so you don't feel left out.

Just jokes... I am jealous as hell. Drink a slab for me and watch out for loco colombians!

PS: 5 days without wind warnings in SE this year....hmm
