    Based on prior experience did you get a zarpe/exit document from the last place you left from (US). As I recall, Guatemala wants that doc for checking in, otherwise you have to visit Belize for a day, get their exit paperwork before checking into Guatemala.

    Uncle Matty from "Sailing Good, Bad, and Ugly" predicted you were going to get fat when he found out you got the electric windlass. Now that you have the roller furler also, I think you have to be concerned about getting obese! Brandy, your narrative is like poetry. I think that you and Brian from Delos are the cream of the crop when it comes to narration. All the Love. All the power.

    Out of curiosity do you feel like you are loosing a bit of that solitude and the feeling of truly being alone with Starlink onboard? BTW the narration is superb.

    • @BeauAndBrandy
      @BeauAndBrandy  14 годин тому +2

      We thought we would struggle with that. But we mainly used it like our iridium that we had before. Check weather, tell ppl we are alive and unplug. So we can make sure that this is still a “mostly” unconnected offshore sail, which is how we like it!

    Made that crossing in 2001. Was a beautiful sail but went to isla mujeres first then gunk holed the coast to the rio Dulce over a 6 week period. Remember seeing a football field sized area of bright green luminescence that turned out to be a large school of mahi mahi running the surface, under a full moon. Suddenly dolphins showed up and exploded the school, jumping and slamming the water to stun fish. Water flying in the air looking like diamonds in the moonlight. There are no words or pictures that can ever convey what the sea can do for the soul.

Used to be a family I was close to that had a dock under the bridge on the south side. Ludwin Aceituno (Luvi) and his wife Emmi. Good rates and food. Been awhile though.

Pop up for a breath then back down riding the belly of the stern like a bronco to get one or two wraps at a time undone. Ahhh, life at sea😂
