Panama Canal to Galapagos Islands ? Sailing Adventures with Darwin

A projection on the equator and a few degrees south of Panama, the Galapagos Islands, 900 nautical miles to the west. Outside of the Gulf of Panama and in a large bowl of swirling currents and cross currents, which serves as an ideal haven for all kinds of flotsam, it has to reach these islands famous evolutionary. calms, storms, thunderstorms in general and litigious Notorious sailing forecast for this team will be another good test for them and the. Youbasking in the feeling of the Pacific, the initial enthusiasm with her again, and with a moderate SSE wind for her neighborhood door, does a good 6.5 knots towards the west along the trail always shining golden in the sun. The second event will be broadcast in the clear, she sees the "other yacht noticed in Balboa.

Can it by VHF took the two captains in a competition comes through the water, gasping for light, and make sure that the vessel is also heading to New Zealand onGalapagos. His team is pretty excited because it means the possibility of the exchange company, the adventures and resources. E 'two days before her radio plays back after the well, and both are VHF range is no contact after they lost sight of at some point during the night shift.

A few days pass, and she holds her fair rate for Santa Cruz. intermittent bursts during the day and shows amazing thunderstorms at night to keepintense attention of the crew. Variety of forked lightning flashes and constantly around the whole horizon to 360 degrees. This performance is accompanied by thunder different depending on intensity, structure and duration of the distance. If you listen carefully, a pattern begins to emerge and to question the captain of the guard in the darkness and begins his own "Thunder and Lightning Polka. Do you think you want to appease some strange ritual to midnightOf (not too far from the truth!) And adds them to its list of the unfathomable human eccentricity.

A monstrous extended flash is so long and hard and, coupled with a start in most of the bridge while driving over the crest of a wave, the captain almost loses his balance. While stumbling around in the cockpit trying to regain his balance, we note with interest that he actually see the color of things during this extended light fire.

E 'on one of these similar productsNight shift in the moonlight, the captain, looking over his shoulder in a rain squall disappear is pierced by a rare sight. There, sitting dead center of the rain drops quickly withdrawn, and between them and the moon behind him, is a perfect Moonbow. This rare phenomenon in exactly the same way was like a rainbow created by days of this particular form a perfect circle of the sea surface to the sea surface to spin the absolute magnitude, a band is to separate completely. They areno color, only shades of gray for the tag sequence rainbow flags. Night light has a sufficient strength to activate the receptors of the human cone color, so you do not know what color. Look with wonder, is in the minds of the masters to awaken "the others, but selfishly decided to let them sleep. If we were woken up and no less impressed him, then it would be to testify to their satisfaction and performance of one of nature reduce "Wonder ? what a privilege to see this unique spectacle.

The next day, no wind and gliding over the rolling along nicely, feels that something is moving. A lonely Booby find your tree to infinity and is eventually joined by his mother. The Booby baby is obviously exhausted and mother with encouraging pastors sounds closer to the pole waving our ships. "The technical control of the descent on her swaying and turning Truk is bent over the boy and the vhfAntenna from an odd angle, he settled for a crash landing in the track pulpit. Settling for a few days swallow the odd flying fish, which rated their flight path on a wave wrong and landed on the deck.

During this time, the fool does not move and our crew are amazed by the amount of guano deposited on the foredeck. It dries quickly removed in the tropical sun and even a constant flush such an evil place. Two days, that is enough for our captain, and heshoose away the bird, at last, and to west, from her mother, who accompanied returned. has the afternoon, our young friend watching the past is at rest, on what appears to be wooden towers. On closer inspection, turns out to be a large turtle sunning itself on the surface and as a temporary guest will be ? in what Booby, the turtle appeared never been revealed, slowly bob tail off until they disappear from view inblue haze.

All the time his engine was running like all the wind has dropped. is pushed with a two-node towards the nose, progress is painful. Sometimes at night, but the feeling that big hand move his chest, and the direct effect of gently pushed along. They do not yet travel through the water with the same speed, but is happy for the captain, as he often complains that his speed over ground (SOG), that counts. Asclose build this country after the current three nodes, then the engine rpm cruising at about sixteen hundred rpm, the SOG will jump to eight knots ? the captain is happy and begins to sing again, especially now hitting the need for other yachts in the harbor in a corner of his mind is hiding. She knows she can run the legs off of it at any time, without radio contact and the whims of the time it is a habit of creeping doubt

80 nautical milesLandfall will, life on the surface and above, make multiply exponentially. The birds begin appearing in every respect ? many flights can dip structure in the past and all shades of brown, blue, and you think you know. Booby come and go in Legion, several flocks of seagulls and later in the afternoon, the first frigate bird glides smoothly and surveillance, huge wings, flash red in the throat, the impression of a scout. Several lazy circles high and after breaksand runs in the lowering sun, no doubt report back to base.

Dolphins re-appear in great numbers, to whet our little ship around in the trunks of sucking and blowing the masters pull of his harmonica. Wings of the flying fish, buzzing and blinking in the sun, the waves popping out everywhere and hit repeatedly and emphatically large pelagic 'to his lures and lures give up their influence on the line and again forever. The abundance of exceptionalLife on and around these islands are all looking forward to see, with great expectation is closer to reality.

A breeze sails now with a fine harbor on the road to get to their destination in high spirits break and allows her crew jump around bridges ? it feels good, so guess that crew should take its allowed emotions to make landfall, after nine days at sea. It is beginning to understand the stimulation comes fromnot only the expectation of a new port, but also a break in the routine of life on board is in progress.

"Land Ho" the cry room and immediately all eyes swivel towards the west. The cover plate rose from sheet steel cloud from the west, but on the horizon, dead, above a thick black and irregular teeth on the surface of the silver.
