Eager to Leave Panama April 25

heretic | 2 comments

We never recovered the anchor. John and I (Dana, Seth´s Dad) transited the canal again assisting David Townsend as linehandlers aboard Pinta. As we passed the location of the lost anchor, we noted that it had been recovered or the float (a lifejacket) had been removed. Still, some fishermen dove trying to locate it for us without success.

David Townsend has been a great help to us both with his computer expertise and by running Seth and Ellen about the anchorage in Colon to find a vessel willing to tow Heretic. He has since sailed on towards the Galapagos. He reports very little wind; we may catch him yet.

Apparently there are no anchors available in Panama except the Danforth. Seth repeatedly requested assistance on the Cruiser Net (0800 daily on VHF channel 69). Eventually a gentleman responded and sold Seth a suitable CQR type that he was no longer using at a reasonable price. It´s a bit bigger than the previous, but it sure holds well.

The big issue has been to shift the engine forward into the main cabin in order to chisel the rotten spots out of the supporting bedlogs. Because we roll sometimes heavily in the anchorage, we had to get inside La Playita jetty prior to shifting the engine. La Playita told us that no moorings would be available for weeks. Feeling somewhat desperate, we decided to push the issue and pick up a mooring that has been empty for some time. So we disconnected wires and hoses from the engine, set the CQR and recovered the 65 lb Luke, Jane Garfield generously donated to Heretic, in preparation for our shift. Recovering the Luke was a job, but no dings on the hull.

On Easter Sunday morning we tacked up into the tight little harbor and picked up the mooring. It wasn´t long before an employee of La Playita chased us out. We sailed back out and set the hook. Then Seth rowed in to discuss our situation again. It was eventually agreed that we might anchor inside, although this is not normally permitted, provided we paid a mooring fee. We set sail again. Just at the harbor mouth we were met by a squall, so wheeled around and roared back into the outer anchorage, in drenching rain, where we again anchored and got all snugged down. Later in the day we tacked into the harbor and anchored where we´d been directed. We provided the anchored fleet with some entertainment, and Seth got some kudos from other boats for his boat-handling and seamanship. He earned them.

Seth hasn´t had much luck with machine shops. He bought a new stainless shaft which had to be cut to length and have a keyway cut into it. After installing the new shaft (by diving), Seth discovered that the keyway was sloppy. The shaft had to go back to the shop to weld up the keyway, turn the shaft in a lathe to cut away excess weld material, and have a new keyway cut. This went ok, but the coupler was bored incorrectly. At this point Seth enlisted the help of Joe Brashear, an American mechanic with great expertise and with Spanish language ability. He also is a resident and has a working relationship with the local businesses. We now have a good shaft and coupler.

After lots of work the engine is now back in place on solid bedlogs. Joe helped us get the engine properly aligned. We had to get a new starter solenoid; a recent wrinkle. Tomorrow we will test the engine and propulsion components.

Yes, there have been a couple of memorable parties too. One aboard a large catamaran named Hibiscus (Billy and Sandy) was good fun. John had been invited; we all went. Another I alone attended, and quite enjoyed, aboard Timella (Cameron and Sharon).

Timella is a ketch of about 30 ft from the UK. Sharon is from Glasgow; the accent brings back memories. I have passed Cameron and Sharon a drawing of Timella loaded with people, dinghies hanging all around, with about six inches of freeboard aft, and with the bow considerably raised. It was a good party!

Josh Houck departed several weeks ago aboard a catamaran.  He joined a crew delivering her to her owner in Hawaii.
John Rupp departed Panama and Heretic on 13 April with great expectations of heavy snow in the Northeast. He´s looking forward to some skiing. We will miss John.

Ellen arrived back in Panama also on the 13th, after a short Easter visit to her parents. Seth was, of course extremely glad to see her.

There is a little stocking up still to do. We now expect to depart for the Galapagos in a few days.
