2014 Panama Canal - Arrival & Preparations


Had to call into Jamaica to fix the freezer for a few days and did some land travel then on south to the San Blas to purchase a few Molas.  We arrived in Shelter Bay Panama and had to wait for five days to get the paperwork organised before traversing the Canal.
We arrived in the Pacific and called into the anchorage to get the last of the fresh food before heading off to the Galapagos.
The Vietnamese crew left by "mutual" agreement - she would not have lasted past Panama.  I now have a new crew who is more than willing to learn and help around the boat.  Not interested in parting with any fellow in the vicinity.  Welcome on board.
