SAILING TO COLON AT THE CANAL ENTRANCE

After a lovely stay at the Red Frog Resort in Bocas del Toro it was time for us to move our yacht Kwanza to the canal staging point of Colon. Specifically to the Shelter Bay marina.
This is where we planned to keep Kwanza until we were ready to transit the canal.
The trip was fairly uneventful but the entrance to Colon Harbour was hectic, and it was raining hard.!
