Qué cubre este vídeo
The crew of the yacht Kitalpa completes the customs and immigration checkout process in Golfito, Costa Rica, before departing for a 50-nautical-mile passage to Panama.▶ 9:13 The checkout procedure requires visiting immigration, customs, and the Harbour Master, with the latter involving a mandatory bank payment that can take several hours to process.▶ 6:23 Following this transit, the owners announce a change in their long-term itinerary: instead of transiting the Panama Canal to explore the Caribbean, they will prepare for a 4,000-nautical-mile Pacific crossing to French Polynesia.▶ 10:27 The crew plans to spend the next 10 to 12 weeks readying the vessel, which has recently undergone upgrades including new sails, a new rig, and new chain plates.▶ 10:52 They intend to depart Panama late in the season, making them among the final vessels to cross the Pacific this year.▶ 12:59
