We made it - Tally Ho is in the Atlantic!

The Panama Canal was an incredible experience - chaotic, exciting, and challenging!

We had a great crew on board, an excellent local canal advisor, and now - for the first time since 1968 - Tally Ho is back in the ocean that she came from.

Her home waters still feel a long way away, and the most challenging part of the trip is definitely still yet to come, but this is without a doubt one of the major milestones of this adventure.

I'm afraid a livestream just wasn't practical, but we have a lot of great footage and I'm excited to make this video - expect to see strong headwinds, torrential rain, many changes of plan, some near misses, extreme turbulence, and a dramatic finale!

Enhorabuena. Vuestro último video fue emocionante. Estoy esperando con ganas el nuevo. Veo que estáis descansando en Bahía Limón. Parece que la próxima semana tendréis suaves vientos de cara y largas bordadas. ¡Disfrutadlos, y contádnoslo luego!. Un abrazo

Great fun. My passages through "The Canal" are in the top 10 experiences of my sailing life. Long ago, one was allowed to anchor mid-canal and spend the night. It was magical. Do they still allow that for slower craft? We also ended up in locks with SERIOUSLY BIG ships. Watching the bow of a ship near our rig was "exciting" and not in a good way. So glad you all are doing this. Thank you for letting us come along for the ride virtually!

Congrats Leo — let me know about any port-of-call in Boston!

I was bummed that the Canal website only displayed a stock still of the Miraflores locks while billing it as webcam. I eagerly await your next upload.

Wonderful! Congrats to you all! Looks like you have a small audience watching you from atop that small boat ahead of you.
