Puerto Lucia Yacht Club is doing a great job of welcoming the fleet, and it also acts as a secure place to leave the yacht whilst the crews head off to destinations such as Machu Pichu in Peru, Quito, Guayaquil, and the nearby surfing mecca of Montanita, which is hosting an international competition. |

Sailboats in the Panama Canal
03 Feb Shelter Bay, Panama - While the group of ten yachts scheduled to transit today are making themselves ready, the marina has laid on a great program to keep the crew entertained during Sunday. We've had the equivalent of a car boot sale from 9am to midday with a Nautical Sweep Out on the terrace - a chance to clean out bilges of old charts, widgets, and all manner of bits and bobs. |
