[ Cancelled ] World ARC Leg 2 Panama to Galapagos Panama to Galapagos ref 1585
Dan Bower wants 2 crew for Skyelark of London, Skye 51, 16m.
From Panama, Panama to Santa Cruz, Galapagos.
February 2017 to March 2017.
Leg 2: Panama City, Las Perlas, Galapagos (940nm) Joining in Panama, we will cruise down to the Las Perlas islands and have a couple of days exploring before meeting up with the other WARC yachts for the sail to Galapagos. We leave 12th February and the 850nm passage should take 6 days. This is a particularly special passage as it crosses the Equator, so the crew will need to pay homage to King Neptune in the traditional style! After arriving in San Christobal there will be plenty of time for exploring these legendary islands. A nature lover's paradise, you would expect to see sea lions, whales, giant tortoises, masses of fish and sea birds. The diving, snorkeling and nature watching is world class. You can expect to swim with big mammal and hammer head sharks. Onshore the traditional community is full of local flavour both socially and literally with fantastic fresh fish, fruit and vegetables. Skyelark will be based in the 2 main harbours a day sail away. To protect the fragile eco system, yachts are not permitted to cruise freely. The best way to fully appreciate these islands is to take organised tours with local guides who will make sure you have the full experience. Our final destination will be Santa Cruz, where we will rendezvous with the other WARC yachts. Skyelark is fully coded to cat 0 regulations (unrestricted). This will be her second circumnavigation with her owners Dan and Em, both highly experienced ocean yachtmasters. Price £3500. Please email us for any further information. http://skye51.com
