When I lived in Foug, France as a kid in ‘65-66, we lived near a canal and by our house was a few locks, they also had a tunnel and we would watch the barges, waiting for the locks and tunnels. One day a yacht came through with an American flag and we started calling to them. They thought we were French, but we told them we were Americans. They asked if we wanted to see the boat and go through a lock with them. Of course we did and we ran over and tour the boat and then went through the lock. They were from Los Angeles and had sail from there, through the Panama Canal, around Florida and up the East Coast, then across to Europe. They then were traveling the rivers and canals. That could be a great trip to make some day, you would have to take the mast down, but still it would be a great trip on the canals, through the small towns like Foug.

+billyl allen - doing a canal trip through France is definitely on the list. Not sure if the expense and trouble is dropping the mast on this boat tindi it would be worth it but it’s easy to rent a boat for a week or two.

We went thru the canal on a cruise ship and it was a great experience but being a life long boater I just wanted so bad to be on my own bottom. There were a couple of cruising boats in the lock next to us so I was able to watch the process but your video really brought it all together for me. Soon I hope to be you. lol Keep up the great work.

It's not necessary to have an agent so that a savings .. Standard sail boat under 50' is closer to $1100 after you get the $800 back if you don't mess anything up.. Plan on spending the extra day to pay your line handler's at $100 a day. You also need food and water for the guide per day. If you can bring cash from other places USD to pay the fees , you only will have one trip through the most dangerous city in panama. Because the city bank has no atm withdrawal so you risk wandering around the city with $2000 cash on you. They only except cash.... Bring a total of 10 fenders for your boat and that's a cost invested for your boat and no renting. They can just rent the lines at a less cost. So long as you have everything on the list setup and can do at least 5kn under power you should be fine to enjoy the trip. I'd absolutely love to do it on a massive boat like this one.

You certainly don't want to make a mistake. Mechanical troubles are costly as well. From what I understand every extra day spent in the canal costs a few hundred dollars extra. It would seem the small monohull that couldn't keep up may have had to pay the extra fee.
@richardbohlingsr34905 жыл бұрын
Looks like the transit went well and considering what it would of cost in fuel and time to go around the horn. Well I guess $2k isn't all that expensive. It took 8 days down to Panama, 10 days to transit and another 8 to 10 days up to SD, CA. That doesn't seem to long to travel from Florida to CA. Not counting the adventure thrown in for fun. Happy sailing.
