Leaving La Playita for Otoque, Panama
07 April 2013

We left La Playita at about 9:30am headed for Otoque which is a small island about 20 nautical miles away, this will make our journey to Banao that much shorter the next day.
We arrived at Otoque in the afternoon, it has an open bay but no fetch to speak of at this time of year. We anchored where the Sarana guide has the waypoint in 50 ft of water. After we got settled the wind started to pick up and we had gusts of 20 - 25 knots., it made it a little uncomfortable but still no fetch just some mind swells. To bed early now as we plan on getting up at 2:00am as we have 98 miles to go tomorrow to reach Banao.

Here are some images we took of El Salvador and Guatamala. These images show the diversity and culture of these countries.

Here is some shots of us and other boats crossing the bar at Bahia del Sol. Some of the images look worse then it actually is as they are taken from a jetski just ahead of the boats. Everyone enjoyed the ride. Some of the women who helmed across the bar said it was better then sex; but I doubt that.

In July 2010 NautiMoments, with her crew of 5 onboard, joined 8 other member boat of the Blue Water Cruising to sail offshore. This was a test of our boats and our selves. At 8:00 on July 13 we sailed from our birth in Point Roberts, down the Strait of Georgia, Boundary Pass, Haro Strait, Strait of Juan de Fuca and up the west coast of Vancouver Island to Ucluelet, with overnight stops in Sooke, Bamfield and Turtle Bay (in the Broken Island Group). We then sailed offshore before returning to the Broken Group. Then we sailed the return trip to our home port of Point Roberts.
