Will The CANAL Let Us TRANSIT? - Onboard Lifestyle ep.299
As basik approaches the Panama Canal, the crew is unsure if our transit can even happen. Civil unrest, drought, Container Ship Backlog, and multiple rallies are all hitting the canal at the same time we are scheduled to. Our transit agent is doing what he can to keep us informed and on schedule, but at times, is not looking promising. With last minute information keeping us on out toes we have some hope. So come back next week to see how this situation turns out... see you then!

      Delays can change everything because cruisers pay attention to the upcoming hurricane season. A delay may effect our float plan. The weather in Panama turns quickly to lightning season and our hope is to make it through the canal before that happens.

      While western Costa Rica is not a very cruiser friendly coastline, we wouldn't want to discourage anyone from doing it. Land travel is excellent and if we weren't so pressed for time, maybe we could've planned some inland travel and explorations. Compass was a factor as well as marina fees. The average cost for a catamaran moorage is $5 usd per foot per day. Yikes. 😬😬😬
