Oktober. Der Plan ist, einige Tage auf den Islas del Rosario, 30 Meilen s\u00fcdwestlich von Cartagena, zu verbringen, um wieder in die Boot-Routine zu kommen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/sailingmakaan.wordpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/pxl_20241002_164856461.jpg?w=1024\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-865\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/sailingmakaan.wordpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/pxl_20241002_161034576.jpg?w=989\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-866\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/sailingmakaan.wordpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/pxl_20241004_141736672.jpg?w=768\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-867\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We spend two relaxing days on the Islas del Rosario with lots and lots of swimming and the occasional hike across the island.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-blue-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-2 wp-block-paragraph\">Wir verbringen zwei erholsame Tage auf den Islas del Rosario mit viel Schwimmen und einem gelegentlichen Spaziergang \u00fcber die Insel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/sailingmakaan.wordpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/pxl_20241006_212007903.jpg?w=1024\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-870\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/sailingmakaan.wordpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/pxl_20241004_202205225.jpg?w=768\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-869\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/sailingmakaan.wordpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/pxl_20241006_210427128.jpg?w=1024\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-872\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/sailingmakaan.wordpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/pxl_20241006_210847354.jpg?w=1024\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-873\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/sailingmakaan.wordpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/pxl_20241006_204757571.jpg?w=1024\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-894\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The voyage to Puerto Obaldia, Panama is 200 nautical miles, which should take about 40 hours at an average speed of 5 knots per hour.With the predicted winds, we won&#8217;t be able to sail a straight course though. Depending on the wind model we look at, the prediction for the length of the passage varies from 2 1\/2 to 4 \u00bd days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-blue-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-3 wp-block-paragraph\">Die Fahrt nach Puerto Obaldia, Panama, betr\u00e4gt 200 Seemeilen und sollte 40 Stunden bei einer Durchschnittsgeschwindigkeit von 5 Knoten\/Stunde dauern. Bei den vorhergesagten Winden werden wir aber keinen geraden Kurs fahren k\u00f6nnen. Je nachdem, welches Windmodell wir betrachten, schwankt die Vorhersage f\u00fcr die Dauer der Passage zwischen 2 1\/2 und 4 \u00bd Tagen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We leave at a quarter to nine on October 7 on a beam reach, winds mostly from the south, between 10 and 20 knots. After a few hours, the wind shifts to the southwest and we continue on a close reach at 5-6 knots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-bright-blue-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-4 wp-block-paragraph\">Wir legen am 7. Oktober um viertel vor neun ab und segeln bei Wind aus s\u00fcdlichen Richtungen mit einer Geschwindigkeit zwischen 10 und 20 Knoten einen sch\u00f6nen Halbwindkurs. Nach ein paar Stunden dreht der Wind auf S\u00fcdwest, und nun segeln wir  mit 5-6 Knoten am Wind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Suddenly we see a lot of debris in the water and have to maneuver around large logs. Imagine if this had happened during the night!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-blue-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-5 wp-block-paragraph\">Pl\u00f6tzlich sehen wir eine Menge Treibholz im Wasser und m\u00fcssen um gro\u00dfe Baumst\u00e4mme herum man\u00f6vrieren. Wir wollen gar nicht dar\u00fcber nachdenken, wenn das in der Nacht passiert w\u00e4re!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At about 18:15, Cartagena Port Control calls to check on our progress. It is good to know that someone is keeping an eye on us. After all, the remote area between the Colombian and Panamanian borders still has a bad reputation for drug smuggling and human trafficking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-blue-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-6 wp-block-paragraph\">Gegen 18:15 Uhr meldet sich die Hafenkontrolle von Cartagena bei uns. Es ist gut zu wissen, da\u00df jemand ein wachsames Auge auf uns hat . Schlie\u00dflich hat das abgelegene Gebiet zwischen der kolumbianischen und der panamaischen Grenze durch Drogenhandel und Drogenhandel und Menschenschmuggel immer noch einen schlechten Ruf.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At some point during the night, the wind dies down and we stop moving at all. After a few hours, however, it picks up again and blows with up to 20 knots. This pattern continues throughout the second day and it&#8217;s slow going.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-blue-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-7 wp-block-paragraph\">Irgendwann in der Nacht l\u00e4sst der Wind nach und wir kommen nicht mehr voran. Nach ein paar Stunden frischt er jedoch wieder auf und bl\u00e4st mit bis zu 20 Knoten. So geht es den ganzen zweiten Tag weiter und wir machen nur wenig Fortschritt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/sailingmakaan.wordpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/pxl_20241007_232802630.night_.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-876\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the late afternoon of 8\/10, it&#8217;s fish on! Hans pulls a nice size MahiMahi out of the water! A little later we have another one on the hook, but unfortunately it gets away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-blue-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-8 wp-block-paragraph\">Am sp\u00e4ten Nachmittag des 8. Oktober h\u00e4ngt dann ein Fisch an der Angel. Hans zieht einen sch\u00f6nen MahiMahi aus dem Wasser! Wenig sp\u00e4ter haben wir einen weiteren am Haken, aber der kann sich leider losmachen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/sailingmakaan.wordpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/pxl_20241008_212348102.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-874\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Around 3am on 10\/9 our odometer shows 10000 miles since leaving Southpoint Marina on June 3, 2022. Quite a milestone!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-blue-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-9 wp-block-paragraph\">Gegen 3 Uhr morgens am 9.10. zeigt unser Tacho 10000 Meilen seit dem Verlassen der Southpoint Marina am 3. Juni 2022. Ein echter Meilenstein!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Panama comes into sight in the early morning hours of 10\/9 and with the nice breeze that is blowing we hope to make it to Puerto Obaldia by evening, but after another long stretch of no to very little wind we find ourselves spending another night on the water. There is a lot of lightning around us, a really unpleasant feeling. Panama is known for its lightning activity, so much so that some marine insurance companies even exclude lightning damage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-blue-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-10 wp-block-paragraph\">Panama kommt in den fr\u00fchen Morgenstunden des 9.10. in Sicht, und mit der sch\u00f6nen Brise, die weht, hoffen wir, es bis zum Abend nach Puerto Obaldia zu schaffen. Aber nach einer weiteren langen Periode ohne oder mit sehr wenig Wind verbringen wir noch eine weitere Nacht auf dem Wasser.  Um uns herum zucken viele Blitze, ein \u00e4u\u00dferst unbehagliches Gef\u00fchl. Panama ist bekannt f\u00fcr seine hohe Blitzaktivit\u00e4t, so dass einige Bootsversicherungen sogar Blitzsch\u00e4den ausschlie\u00dfen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/sailingmakaan.wordpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/pxl_20241009_103654265.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-878\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Finally, at 8:17 a.m. on 10\/10, we are anchored in Puerto Obaldia. It took us three full days for a journey of 199 nautical miles. We could have used the engine to speed things up but what the heck &#8211; we were in no hurry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-blue-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-11 wp-block-paragraph\">Endlich, am 10.10. um 8:17 Uhr, liegen wir in Puerto Obaldia vor Anker. F\u00fcr die 199 Seemeilen haben wir drei volle Tage gebraucht. Wir h\u00e4tten die Maschine anwerfen k\u00f6nnen, aber warum &#8211; wir hatten es ja nicht eilig.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/sailingmakaan.wordpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/pxl_20241010_122131528.jpg?w=1024\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-880\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/sailingmakaan.wordpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/pxl_20241010_155136825.jpg?w=1024\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-881\" \/><\/figure>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After several supply runs (after all, we are about to spend two months in an area where it will be difficult to get food), we finally leave Cartagena on October 4.
