Axe Handles...why is that?

Friend of mine being silly with a small baracudda. Eastern Panamá, Caribbean coast.

Working on it, but wont be back aboard the boat until early next year...will have some serious catching up to do!

The Snook and Redfish I know, but whats the other one with dorsal fins way back toward the tail?

Insurgente, Rompe Olas (Break the Waves), good IPA.

Yes, if Ive just spreared one or two I just use shears to cut the spines. Best to wear gloves, I just grazed my finger once with a spine tip, didnt even break the skin, and it throbbed for hours. If you plan to shoot a bunch, then the sea water ice water slurry in a big ice chest is more...

Yes! Quite tasty, a nice fine grained white meat, but not a lot of meat per fish, so you need a few to make a meal. However, you do have to deal with those toxic spines first. Each is like a long skinny hypodermic needle. Cold, below freezing, and heat denatures the toxin. One way to deal with...

Lion Fish, San Blas Islands, Panamá

Monks Cafe. A great surprise find today here in Panamá where random beers sometimes just show up on the shelf.

Sailing season is over...back in the Chiriqui Highlands of Panamá. Smoking my last Miami Cuban hand roll. Might even do some brewing soon.

We've had a great cruising season in the San Blas islands of Panama. But, rainy season has arrived in full force, so now Im putting the boat to bed in PanaMarina. Was hoping for a great sunset/stogie shot to share but the rainy season cloud cover has screwed that up. So, here is a shot across...

Damn, I got so excited about having stogies again, I forgot to get a good pic. Will get a better one soon. My buddy left behind a bundle of local hand rolls from Miami. The roller is a "dry foot" Cuban who got into the USA under that policy a few years ago. Milder than my normal preference...

Hey guys, long time no post. Ive been sailing in the San Blas islands of Panama since March. Way cool place, but no stogies. [emoji16][emoji853] A buddy is coming down to sail with us soon and bringing stogies, so I hope to have good stogie pics to post again soon!

There is a lot to experience in Panama. We've been slowly, and unintentionally, migrating here from Guatemala (an amazing country) since 2012. Bocas del Toro. We sailed to Bocas in 2012 from Guatemala and kept the boat there for a year or so. Many people either love or hate Bocas. It can be a...

Robenson keys: https://goo.gl/maps/CSHmMdQsR662

Wow, what a great experience today! We are anchored in the Robenson island group of the San Blas islands of Panama. The San Blas Islands (Guna Yala in the Kuna language) are the semi-autonamous territory of the Kuna indians. They are one of the few indigenous peoples who have managed to...

Casa Bruja, Black IPA (Pasa Canoas)...good stuff, roasty, hoppy, smooth.

Wow, now thats a beer! An Imperial Porter...like a roasted choclate milkshake with a kick!

Historically, the original real working mans beer. If you wanna brew...this is it. Or, just buy a six pack of Bud for the USA equivalent. [emoji6]
