You need to arrive in Panama before the hurricane season, Say June then you should leave in time to leave Tahiti before October 31st. the start of the Cyclone season. So you timing is well within that time frame.

I suggest a deviation from the usual "milk run" and visit Samao ,Penrhyn (Cook Islands) and the vavau group in the Tonga Islands and if you get as far as Fiji go up to the Wallace group.

  Hi
  - I've been out of touch for a while - sailing slowly down from
  Florida to Venezuela and then the ABC's, Haiti, Cuba, Mexico, Belize,
  Honduras and now Panama.
  The plan now is to spend some time in the San Blas and Cartagena (any
  information on marinas and suitable places to get work done v
  welcome) before going through the Canal and on to the Galapagos,
  French Marquessas and the coconut run to New Zealand.
  I would greatly appreciate advice on timing. The outline plan is to
  leave Panama in early March, spend two weeks in the Galapagos (if we
  can) and then press on to arrive in the Marquessas around 21st
  April. Does this seem about right?
  I would welcome comments on routing - I plan to arrive in NZ in late
  October early November.
  Many thanks

  david
