Stopping to let some stronger head winds pass us by--plan to be here until Monday morning. Then just 350 mile to go to PV! | over 7 years ago | Show |

| 12º 42.12' N | 89º 11.55' W | Ceilydh | Sailing and motoring along. The dreaded Gulf of Papagayo wasn't very dreadful. Nice breeze on the beam for 18 hours then it lightened up. | over 7 years ago | Show |

Lumpy swells from ahead aren't too pleasant and constant rain - but no wind in our faces so we'll take it. | over 7 years ago | Show |

| 9º 36.588' N | 79º 14.388' W | Ceilydh | Arrived in Portobello after a motorsail from San Blas. Started the day off by running aground. We saw a cayuca under sail (most use engines now) and I wanted a few photos. They were ghosting over some sand flats so we nudged toward them for a better shot... Happily we only went up with the back of one hull. After driving off didn't work, Ev stood in the water and pushed us off to counteract the prop wash. That's what we get for getting underway before 10am. | over 7 years ago | Show |
| 9º 32.73' N | 78º 53.988' W | Ceilydh | Moved to the Lemmons for jumping to Portobello in the morning. More crowded and not as pretty as the Holandes--but it has a stronger cell signal so the cruising boats congregate here. Had hoped to encounter Lisa the mola maker but Venancio Restrepo stopped by instead. His molas are spectacular and the best quality we've seen if you like the traditional geometric styles with abstract designs and intricate needle work--but his $50-$60 molas are similar in quality to the traditional molas we found in the Holandes for $30-$40. Has a gorgeous selection though and can tell you what all the symbols mean in English.
In Oct 2016 prices were: $10 to anchor in the Holandes (not sure for how long but it seemed a one-time fee and we got a receipt), $4 a pound for lobster--though the price kept dropping each time we bought. Our last lobsters were big ones and $4 each. $2.50 a pound for fresh conch meat, $2 a pound for crab, almost nothing for fish... The veggie boat sold mixed veggies (broccoli, tomatoes, avocado, eggplant etc) for a flat rate of $1 a pound. Cold water/juice/pop was appreciated by everyone who stopped by. | over 7 years ago | Show |
| 9º 34.572' N | 78º 38.862' W | Ceilydh | Gonna go out on a limb and say we can prove the world is round... Revisiting San Blas 19-years later and crossing the north eastward wake of little Ceilydh. Between the two boats we've now gone around the world :) Heading for 'swimming pool anchorage off of BBQ islnad' I'm pretty sure the last time we were here the anchorages didn't have names, or a half-dozen boats in them. | over 7 years ago | Show |

| 12º 39.27' N | 70º 42.75' W | Ceilydh | Had a nice dolphin and whale encounter when leaving Curacao. Need to look up the whales--small and black with blunt noses--but much bigger than Atlantic spotted dolphins. Slow night with winds from astern <8 knots. Sloppy seas but nice and small. | over 7 years ago | Show |

We have small squalls around us but reasonable sea conditions-- making 6.5-7.5 in a come and go current between 1-2 knots. The water may be slightly greener off of the Amazon (how cool is that to say?) but it's hard to tell in the mixed overcast. Lots of rainbows around though. | almost 8 years ago | Show |

At 12/06/2016 6:25 PM (utc) our position was 02°30.06'S 033°01.59'W We are sailing under spinnaker again. Had a major bath this morning, enough for us all to shower in the rain. Once again, left the spinnaker up until the boat was doing 12.6 knots and bows were threatening to become airborne. Very hard to get the snuffer down when the chute is wet, even when we blew the guy. The CAPE (convection index) I have been getting shows moderate convection for next few days, along with all these rain clouds. Dinner tonight is something with chick peas I believe.

| 2º 44.07' S | 32º 16.11' W | Ceilydh | Continuing light winds from astern--but Crystal Blues who are 60 miles astern have 15 knots from ahead--so keeping an eye out for a wind change. Our little bird is still with us--but his leg is badly injured. | almost 8 years ago | Show |
| 3º 18.708' S | 30º 7.2' W | Ceilydh | Broke our no spinnaker on iffy nights rule because despite the gribs--the sky looked clear. So of course got the squall--and whilst going 12 knots and trying to decide how long the squall might last the AIS alarm went off with a ship also going 12 knots coming at us and our closest point of contact being .01 nm... Meanwhile we had an injured Sooty Tern on the roof that Charlie wanted to visit. So he kept sneaking out the door to get on the roof, while we were dousing the spinnaker, and tracking the ship, and doing 12 knots... Still have the cat. Sadly the ST flew away before we could cut the longline net off its feet. Slow going this am--lots of convection around. | almost 8 years ago | Show |
