Hello

We sailed across the Atlantic in January this year (2016) and after a season sailing the caribbean Islands we are now on the hard at Clarkes Court in Grenada .

We would like to go through Panama to the Marquesas in 2018 but would appreciate some advice on this up coming season ...options are :

1. Another season in the Islands

2. Sail West ...ABC then perhaps Santa Marta , San Blas then through to maybe Shelter Bay Marina to leave the boat there in prep for going through canal in 2018 ?

3. Sail up to Jamaica ..Cuba ? then down to Panama ?

Would appreciate any thoughts , many thanks Martin
