Cosa tratta questo video
Ivo and Dajana sail their boat from Panama City to the Archipel de Las Perlas, a 40-mile passage.2:07 Upon entering the Pacific, the crew catches a Pacific salmon, noting a significant increase in marine life compared to their previous years in the Caribbean.0:27 They anchor off the northern coast of Isla del Rey, the largest island in the archipelago, where they explore the local village and mangrove forests.4:34 Navigating the islands requires constant attention to tidal ranges, which reach several meters, and submerged rocks.6:30 The crew relies on the Bauhaus nautical guide for navigation and uses Navionics satellite imagery to verify depths and identify hazards in areas where official tide data from different applications conflicts.7:19 When anchoring, they calculate depth by adding their keel clearance to the sounder reading and cross-referencing tide tables to ensure sufficient water at low tide.10:22 They find snorkeling opportunities limited, identifying only two anchorages in the archipelago with clear, fish-rich water.8:05
