What this video covers

The crew of the sailboat *Bohemia* hosts family members for a 15-day visit in the San Blas Islands, Panama, while preparing the vessel for a transit of the Panama Canal.0:07 During the visit, the owners replace a stiff, malfunctioning engine throttle control with a new unit, noting that the original mechanism had become corroded and difficult to operate.11:06 The replacement process involves a simple mechanical swap of the control cables and lever assembly.11:52 While navigating the archipelago, the crew employs a double-anchor mooring technique—setting one anchor forward and one aft—to prevent the boat from swinging in tight, shallow anchorages near the coast.10:11 They also explore local villages, including Corazón de Jesús and Narganá, to restock provisions and refill propane tanks.31:20 The crew observes a significant increase in the number of cruising sailboats in the region compared to previous years, noting that some anchorages now host dozens of vessels.18:10
