Day 31 - Contadora, Las Perlas Islands Panama
Greetings from yacht Ensemble.
After a brief motor-sail yesterday we reached Contadora, about 30nm from Panama City.
It is the first island we’ve seen in ages with decent sand – and the World ARC captain’s briefing was held at a small beachside resort.
The next leg to Galapagos Islands starts tomorrow at lunch-time and is about 850nm. Winds are expected to be very light – but at least there will be a favorable current – and we all have plenty of fuel just in case!
We went for a nice swim this morning and it was very refreshing. We used the opportunity to give the hull a quick wipe-down and clear the blocked log wheel. We aim to have a relaxing day before the next big leg.
Tonight is the awards dinner for the first leg – so should be fun.
Cheers
Dave & Magali
