Next Step - 24th Jan 2020



Hopefully, on target to get into the San Blas Islands today...! Overnight we had quite a bit of shipping traffic and it was very dark with cloudy skies for most of the time. Thankfully the wind stayed with us all the way until the late morning when it got a bit lighter but with the engine running we still managed to achieve a steady 6.5 knots towards the finish line. During the morning we planned our arrival anchorage destination and input the necessary waypoints into the chartplotter. Lunchtime Nicole made a guacamole to have with salad and wraps, very nice. As we get closer to the finish line more and more of the WorldARC fleet yachts start appearing visually and on AIS. At the finish line at 1539 we had Cloud Shadow ahead and Amazing Grace astern. Once over the line we immediately made our way towards our final destination at Tiadup in Cocos Bandero, San Blas. We dropped anchor at 1700 turned off the engine and took in the amazing surroundings. For supper I made a Rogan Josh which seemed to go down OK.
