Hey friends! We’re currently exploring the beaches next to our boat anchored in the Las Perlas archipelago, after an amazing sail here last week from Panama City. We recently bought our dream boat, a Passport 42, did a ton of projects, broke stuff on our shakedown cruise, fixed it, transited the Panama Canal, and sailed into the Pacific Ocean. Whew, yeah this last year was a lot!

In this episode you all are coming along with us for another first on our new boat. Actually 3, the first is discovering this beautiful beach. The black and gray sand is an indication that these islands were formed by volcanic activity, and this is the first time we have seen such a beach in our travels. Someone once told me that if you’ve see one beach, you’ve seen them all, but I find that hard to be true as we continue sailing to new places. Another interesting find, are parts of the beach, or island, that are revealed at low tide. Not very sandy, but cool to explore! Tomorrow we will be taking you through figuring out how to set up and fly our asymmetrical spinnaker for the first time. It’s a huge downwind sail made of lightweight nylon, and flown at the front of the boat. The third will be catching our first Pacific Ocean fish, a big Jack Caravelle! The weather looks promising so lets see how it goes and welcome to Sailing Seawind.
