Hey friends! We’re currently exploring the beaches next to our boat anchored in the Las Perlas archipelago, after an amazing sail here last week from Panama City. We recently bought our dream boat, a Passport 42, did a ton of projects, broke stuff on our shakedown cruise, fixed it, transited the Panama Canal, and sailed into the Pacific Ocean. Whew, yeah this last year was a lot!
In this episode you all are coming along with us for another first on our new boat. Actually 3, the first is discovering this beautiful beach. The black and gray sand is an indication that these islands were formed by volcanic activity, and this is the first time we have seen such a beach in our travels. Someone once told me that if you’ve see one beach, you’ve seen them all, but I find that hard to be true as we continue sailing to new places. Another interesting find, are parts of the beach, or island, that are revealed at low tide. Not very sandy, but cool to explore! Tomorrow we will be taking you through figuring out how to set up and fly our asymmetrical spinnaker for the first time. It’s a huge downwind sail made of lightweight nylon, and flown at the front of the boat. The third will be catching our first Pacific Ocean fish, a big Jack Caravelle! The weather looks promising so lets see how it goes and welcome to Sailing Seawind.

Excellence from start to finish! Great explanation of the anatomy of a sail as well as the demonstration of flying the spinnaker. The drone shots added context and great imagery but the best part was the joy you two exhibited throughout the process!
Parker & Kattie: Wow, that was a true mesmerizing, delightful and breath taking episode. I'm not sure, but the Hood spinnaker maybe a cruising one, meaning she's more easy to set and handle because of her size. However, we notice a speed increase when she filled along with recorded information during the leg. Drone footage was out of this world, the boob's were exceptional, we love birds in flight. With outstanding editing and cinematography along with Parker's on going tutorial we are all blessed to capture the essence of your on going, once in a lifetime voyage. Amazing, just awesome!
Oh, Oh, oh, new Tradition, Cheers on your head !!!! You can TOTALLY make it a "Thing". o OK, not the easiest boat to fish from. Katy, immense respect for making a 'call' on what you don't want to record. We don't have to see every detail of your lives. And, Kudos to the editor for keeping it in.
Pro tip on the snuffer. Have the snuffer line go through a turning block on deck (use a soft shackle) when you are "SNUFFING" it. If the snuffer is under load it will want to pull Katy UP , lift here right off the deck UP. If the line is through a turning block on the deck it will pull her DOWN. Dave S/V FreeWill
You guys are awesome!! I have always wanted to to learn to Sail , and you have motivated me to go do it!!
Something special about spinnakers…. When they’re not trying to kill you that is 😎
Awesome job flying your spinnaker for the first time! Good luck to you both!
Because of growing up near the Erie Canal and my interest in it I have been following your adventure since episode one. Not really a sailor, but was lucky enough to sail on Erroll Flynn's old yacht the Sirocco from Hilo to Lahania.back in the 1970s as well as a brief catamaran trip in the Caroline islands. If you ever decide to sail across the Pacific to Hawaii I promise to greet you in Hilo with aloha and hula dancers
Thank you.
Catching up with prior vids.
Tuna? Hahahaha That be no tuna kids... But dinner on the way regardless.
The secret to preparing Skipjack is bleed it, marinate overnight then in the morning, throw it over the side.
Amen to that!
Y’all are having the time of your life and I’m so happy for you don’t give up
Thank you so much! We sure are loving it ❤️
that was to funny. whats happening. "Birds" nailed it. your right spinnaker does seem a little small
Top stuff Parker .. Thanks for explaining the head tack and the clew
Another great video thank you!❤
Brilliant! From start to finish your filming and quality is amazing excellent work ❤. Ian Thailand
Love seeing you two excited and happy! I love the new sail! Also, the fish tuna catch was epic!
Hope that Costa Rica will be next, tons of wild life in my beautiful country that welcome you guys, be safe.
Nice teamwork flying the kite! Drone shots are incredible.To work together getting that drone home under sail is a feat and a half.Get some kevlar gloves Katy.lol.
The spinaker is a beauty.👏😁
I think that is a symmetrical spinnaker. Usually used with a pole
Well that was fun ‼️ 🎉 And just flew by. Nice catch!! Love watching the birds at their fishing feeding spree. You were fortunate to get to see this. See you next time. ✨ 🌊 💨 ⛵️ 🏝️ 👙 🌞 ✨
As you hoist the sock, starting hauling in on the sheet to set it earlier and avoid wraps.
Very good content. Thanks for explanation of sails.
Soo cool 🙌
It like you jumped into gear when that sail got full
Your film quality and editing is excellent as always. You sir seem to be able to live in the moment and experience life as it comes. Poor Katy seems to have on going dialogue in her head that is distracting to her. I can relate to what she is experiencing as I have had the same issue. I think that your travels and adventures will help to silent those voices and soon you both will be living in the moment. Keep up the good work!
Your "asymetric" spinnaker looks very symmetric to me, which would explain "it's cut differently" and "it's smaller than I thought.😊
Yup, looks like a symmetrical spinnaker from a smaller boat. Still does the job though.
Was thinking the same…
Sounds like it would taste good only some diced Sorrento Chili's fried with it sounds even better. After it's cooked chop up the squares. Make some fish tacos with avocado tomato onion cilantro? And some salsa.With beer to drink before and after. With chips,&salsa on the side.I think maybe better than tuna tacos😂😂😂😂😂
You guys are so brave! You’re an inspiration for us old people. How old are y’all?
Great catch!! Love the video, thanks for the explanation of the sail, us newbies really appreciate it. Question, does the spinnaker always fly to port? Or is the tack and clew interchangeable when flying the jib. Thanks again for all the work you put in for awesome content.
You can gybe a spinnaker through the wind if you have two sheets attached, but we do not do that. If we needed to switch to the starboard side, then we would pull the sock down over the sail and flop it over to the other side, and re rig the sheet. Then we would pull the sock back up, deploying the spinnaker again!
Great video yall❤
Still ROCKIN IT!!!!!@!!!! From a old dude from Pender Harbour BC 😎👍🇨🇦
I think you have your spinnaker there wrong way round,the long edge should go to the bow, think of an asymmetric spinnaker as a gaggy forsail .
Parker, you’re a smart dude. Spend a little time on furthering your fishing knowledge and it will pay dividends for you.
I didn^t understand where you ve been tne last time? Was it on tne NZ?
Worlds collide! I was going to suggest you connect with sv Teulu -- another channel that I follow -- and I see you're both in Golfo Dulce right now. Another couple around your ages: I think you'd get along.
excellent thought, that would be delightful.
@@davidnichols147 It happened! I wonder if my suggestion played a part?
Fin episode! Kunne kommet mer inn på geologi i området (the sand), ulike fisketyper (giftige, ikke spisbare?), er det krokodiller i dette området (Panama?), hvor finnes det hai, kan én fritt gå iland på øyene (privat eller public), fint med detaljer om seilene, fortell om tabletter mot dehydrering (hvordan de virker), priser for oppankring/marinas/boyes, rules for flying the drone if any and thousand of other subjects!
Great explanation by Parker!! Thank you!! Just one thing : Panama City is located in Florida by Mexican Gulf. Parker means Panama Central America right?
Panama city, Panama is on the Pacific side of Panama. Much nicer than anything Florida has to offer.
I am looking at getting starlink. I see some people use the RV version What version do you have and is the performance/coverage good?
❤
Must have been a predator chasing a school of bait fish, and the birds were feasting on it.

OMG! do you guys need to learn to identify fish ! That’s a Jack Crevalle and it is considered poor eating. To make them a little bit better you need to bleed them as soon as you get ahold of them. In fact , bleeding all fish is the best practice. Small chunks with a lot of seasoning is a good way to make a Jack Crevalle palatable. There are some excellent eating species of Jack in the Pacific but Crevalle isn’t one. You guys are sitting in a fishing paradise ! Lean to identify and fish for some of the better eating fish ! You guys are missing out on some of the finest eating to be had on earth.
Give them a break! They are still learning 😮
@@mv.alibiii4685 not trying to be overly critical. They’re just missing out and if nobody says anything they’re in the dark. I have nothing but respect for them.
In Australia it's known as Trevally and some species are good eating
Did you not watch the video? He stated and showed via the fish book that it’s a Crevalle Jack and he did bleed it. Plus he did cut it up in chunks and marinaded it before cooking it to make it palatable. Wow, you may want to consider how it’s not wise and emotionally intelligent to make assumptions or tell people what to learn…especially these smart bad asses out there living their best life.
@@CuriousHumbleMarie I went back and watched it again and I had somehow missed the part where he explained he had looked it up.
