Rio Cucunati

We sailed down to the Golfo de San Miguel the day before yesterday, spent a night at Isla Iguana inside the Golfo and then entered the Rio Cucunati on a rising tide. The Cucunati is a wide, mangrove fringed stream, there are lots of parrots (always flying in pairs, chatting loudly) and egrets around. This morning we’ve taken Pitufa further up, beyond the chart that only shows a few miles of the river. Navigating without a chart is quite exciting, watching out for sandbanks or rocks, one eye always on the depthsounder… We’re now anchored in a wide basin. Before we dare going further, we’ll explore by dinghy, trying to find a safe canal for Pitufa.

    I love the way parrots always fly in pairs! It’s so sweet!
