Departing San Blas for Shelter Bay, Panama, the crew of Big Lost sails roughly 60 nautical miles from Chichime to Linton Bay and then into Bahía Limón on the Atlantic side of the Panama Canal.9:00 The passage runs in two legs: a first hop to the Lemons in 11.5 knots true wind at 120 degrees on starboard tack, then an open-ocean leg with one reef in the main, 20 knots true wind, and large beam swells that made both kids seasick.11:15 The crew chose the window knowing the seas would be rolly, reasoning that waiting would bring bigger swells and stronger winds.10:40 Navionics charts are flagged as essential in San Blas, where depths change rapidly and not everything is charted accurately; cross-checking multiple chart sources is recommended.2:18 Approaching Bahía Limón, the crew navigates the Panama Canal traffic separation lanes — inbound and outbound channels — and opts to drop sails and motor rather than attempt wing-on-wing in heavy ship traffic for the first time.14:32 At Shelter Bay Marina, they wait behind two monohulls finishing their canal transit before docking at a temporary side berth near the fuel dock.18:48 Pre-rigging fenders and lines on the correct side before arrival, and carrying a dedicated spare fender, are called out as practical docking habits.19:45
