As you may recall from my earlier messages, I am currently sitting
out the hurricane season in Guatemala. In November we start sailing
south towards Panama.
We would very much like to visit the east (Caribbean) side of
Nicaragua on the way. Specifically sailing to the Corn Islands and
then to Greytown on the border with Costa Rica.
From there it appears feasible to sail 100 miles through the jungle
and into Lake Nicaragua. It is then only 20 miles overland to the
Pacific – so an interesting alternative to the Panama Canal.
This was one of the major routes the San Francisco gold rush
prospectors used so we know it is feasible. But we have failed to
find anyone who has been there recently.
Can anyone help?
Thank you for your time
Richard Woods
