Some days we wonder why we choose this lifestyle…

The life of a sailor is full of the highest highs and lowest lows, and luckily when things get tough there’s usually some dolphins waiting around the corner to brighten up your day! Join us in this week’s episode for one of the roughest anchorages we’ve been to in years, forcing us to high tail it out at first light through an unsettled sea state. After rolling our guts out, we arrive to a marina in Papagayo where we get some tattoos, do some laundry, and navigate the overly complicated and lengthy process of checking out of the country. Then we make a little pit stop on our way out at one of the most famous surf breaks in the world before setting sail for our 500 mile sail to Mexico!

Skinny dipping at night in the middle of a glowing sea of what looks like millions of tiny fire flies in Costa Rica was one of our strangest and most amazing experiences ever! We noticed the bioluminescence when we pulled in a line from the side of the sail boat, and after experimenting throwing different things in the water, we decided to jump in! We were surprised to see some of things that can trigger the bioluminescence. I won’t ruin the surprise for you on this one though, you’ll have to wait and see for yourself 😂😂😂

But the same creatures that put on this stunning show are also responsible for another unbelievable phenomenon…We woke up in the middle of a hot, stinky, mass grave of THOUSANDS of dead fish all around us. What causes this? We found ourselves in the middle of a red tide event like we have never seen before. It’s pretty insane how such a tiny organism can create so much beauty and so much destruction.

Deep in the jungle of Costa Rica a team of boat builders are living in a community and building the largest active, clean, ocean going cargo vessel in the ENTIRE WORLD.

After sailing deep into the Bay of Nicoya in Costa Rica, we anchored right next to a river mouth where we could take our dinghy back into the mangroves. And amongst the wild jungle that surrounded us in every direction was a very special shipyard. Sail Cargo Inc. is a team of half Costa Rican and half international workers and dreamers who are living together in a community and building the first of what will become a fleet of wooden ships that will sail cargo on various routes around the world. We are lucky enough to go on a little tour around the place and learn more about this incredibly and totally mind blowing project.

What have we gotten ourselves into in Costa Rica??? Join us in the Gulf of Nicoya as we finally find the calm protected, tranquil slice of paradise we thought we were looking for…And instead of enjoying the peace and quiet we decide to just go completely crazy 🤪 Mud fights on the beach, homemade margaritas from wild mangos we picked that will singe the hair off your eyebrows, and Sierra’s first trip to prison! Throw in some rowdy howler monkeys and a sassy beach fashion show from Kazza…and what more can you hope for on a Friday???

It’s been a hell of a week on board 😭 We can’t seem to catch a break, it’s one disaster after another. Costa Rica is proving to be a pretty tough cruising destination…but its not all struggles! We have an AMAZING downwind sail, catch some tasty dinner, score some good waves, and find ourselves in some truly beautiful places!

After 7 months in Panama, we arrive to Costa Rica and explore the most biologically intense place on planet earth!

It’s time to put a new flag on the back of Delos as we officially clear into Costa Rica in Golfito, the southern most port of entry. We travel to the remote and beautiful Osa Peninsula which National Geographic has called the most biologically intense place on earth. We score some amazing waves, have some incredibly special wildlife encounters, and of course get in lots of hammock time!

Then we catch up with Nike from In-Mocean and tell you all about an exciting project that we are teaming up on!

After nearly a decade of owning our dinghy Maggie, we’ve made almost no changes or upgrades to our set up because she is such an absolute beast. But her one slight downfall we’ve been coping with over the years is how incredibly hot she can get, causing our butts and feet to get practically scalded when the sun is cranking. So we finally decided to give Maggie a sexy new facelift and apply some Deck Tread from Total Boat to not only deal with the heat but to also provide some traction.

We also continue making moves north as we wave goodbye to the stunning Coiba National Park and head to our next Panamanian paradise: Isla Gomez. This is one of the coziest spots we’ve been in ages and we were completely blown away with how peaceful and beautiful it is. We had a bunch of Mahi in the freezer that we caught on our way out of Panama City, so we figured it was the perfect spot for a beach bon fire and a cook up!
