It's Official

It's a sad but good thing, we no longer own GHOST. She is now owned by an architect in Sydney who has plans of sailing the South Pacific once again.

Reality bites!!

It's been a while since we updated the blog. Apologies for that but we've been busy fighting off the onslaught of reality, not really wanting to admit it's over! After arriving it was the welcome party in Sydney, followed by a hectic week of moving ALL our personal stuff off GHOST. On a side note, it [...]

Las Perlas islands

10 April 2010 | Las Perlas, Panama
Kat
We headed out from Panama with Claire, a friend of Jay's from school. With pretty much no wind we motored out to the Las Perlas islands, about 30nm from Panama. As we approached the islands we pulled in the largest tuna caught to date, but it unfortunately escaped off the hook just as we lifted it onto the boat - damn! A couple of miles later just as I was about to pull in the line when a reasonably sized Spanish Mackerel decided he would feed us for dinner instead so all was not lost!

It was great to be able to have a swim after the murky Panamanian waters and the boys took turns testing out the wakeboard. We chilled out with a barbie and (too many) beers and had a lovely relaxing time before Claire took the short flight back to Panama and we turn our thoughts to when we will actually start our Galapagos trip.
