I'm hot on your heels David! I'm planning on canal transit and
leaving panama for Galapagos about the same times as you.

Keep an eye out for me. I'll be on a light blue Allied Princess
Ketch. The Lucky Dolphin. Maybe we can help each other out getting
through the canal. I know I'll need line handlers and was planning
on loaning myself out to line handle on someone else's boat before I
take mine through anyway.

I'll be leaving Florida on or about the 1st of November.

Happy cruising.

George
