Cosa tratta questo video

Catalpa anchors at Isla Secas, a chain of roughly 14 volcanic islands about 20 miles offshore in Panama's Gulf of Chiriqui, while the crew prepares to farewell their son Taj before his month-long trip to Brazil for Carnival — which coincides with his 21st birthday. The family collects beach coconuts, discovers a coconut embryo inside one, and uses the desiccated coconut to crumb freshly speared fish for dinner.1:23 Bella spearfishes for the first time; Lee catches four fish at a new spot near a rock.8:04 Trolling on passage to Boca Chica produces repeated bonito strikes, which the crew releases in favor of oats.11:58 In Boca Chica, Lee and Sarah drive to David with Taj, fill a propane bottle, top up jerry cans with diesel, and provision at Price Mart before returning to the islands.17:39 Taj also delivers a commissioned painting in Brazil — a piece titled "As We Do," created by Tasha and dedicated to a collector's late mother.20:23 Sarah discusses running out of their preferred Australian reef-safe zinc sunscreen while remote and making a homemade batch as a substitute, noting her history of stage-one melanoma at 18.21:51 A bommie spotted in the anchorage is checked by swimming its depth — roughly head-to-fin height.24:32 The crew announces Pacific crossing preparations are underway.25:18
