4) Touring Costa Rica by car. Touring Costa Rica by car.  We rented a car here at Marina Papagayo for a week.  We found places to stay by browsing Google Maps and Booking.com and with Airbnb.  On the east coast, Limón is not worth a stop at all but Puerto Viejo de Talamanca was a very nice and quirky seaside village with a fabulous brewpub called Playa Negra Brewing.  
Then we stopped at Quepos and Golfito.  At Golfito, it turns out that Marina Village is completely closed and the reasons aren’t exactly clear.  Some say they’re renovating the docks and will reopen in a few months, others say they went belly-up.  There are two roads between San Jose and Golfito; the coast road and the inland road.  We highly recommend taking one down and the other back because the inland road was an amazingly fabulous drive with lots of beautiful scenery.
We found a great Airbnb just outside San Jose, in Curridabat for about $100.  It was called “Luxury Executive Apartment Curridabat” and it was so nice that we elected to spend a second night there.  The first time we used a car elevator to park!  Rather than drive downtown, we easily caught a bus on the main street and stayed long enough for the brewpubs to open at 18:00 and took an Uber back to the apartment.  We walked down Avenida Central with lots of shops and toured the National Museum.  Craic Irish Pub was great for atmosphere and draft beers, sadly, no Guinness though and no shepherd’s pie.  Next door at Bar La Estación, the nachos looked especially good.  All-in-all, we don’t think there’s a really big draw in going to downtown San Jose. Although we did get to see the world’s ugliest building since the J. Edgar Hoover building – the new home of the Costa Rican Legislature.

6) SQUASH BLOSSOMS SEASON, MEXICO

In Mexico, flores de calabaza (squash blossoms) are most traditionally used in quesadillas. In Oaxaca especially, they’re a standard addition to the most basic quesadilla recipe of mild-flavored Oaxacan cheese and a few of the fresh flowers, cooked inside a handmade corn tortilla and served with an array of salsas.

In Mazatlán, I can find these for four or five months a year at my local farmers market, where they’re sold in a bag of 20 or so for around 80 pesos. In the U.S. squash blossoms are usually from zucchini; here – at least in Sinaloa — they tend to be from those odd, squiggly green-and-white striped squashes called simply calabaza that I’ve never seen or heard of north of the border.

Wherever they’re from, squash blossoms are delicate and won’t last more than a day or two in the refrigerator after they’re picked. Wash them gently in a bowl of cool water and allow them to drain on paper towels, patting them a bit.

Another note: you can substitute requesón for ricotta; it’s almost exactly the same consistency and flavor. Find it fresh from a local dairy or in the deli section at the grocery store, where you can buy however much you want.

Quesadilla de Flor de Calabaza (Squash Flower Quesadilla)

If you have a comal and know how to use it, you won’t need the directions here on how to make a quesadilla. Otherwise, read on. Use handmade corn tortillas if you can.

  • 2 Tbsp. corn or olive oil
  • ½ white onion, thinly sliced
  • 2 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
  • Salt
  • 2 oz. (about ½ cup) Oaxacan, Monterey Jack or other mild cheese, grated
  • 8-10 squash blossoms, stems and stamens removed
  • 4 corn tortillas

Heat oil in a large skillet, preferably cast iron, over medium heat. Cook onion and garlic, stirring occasionally, until soft and golden, 10–12 minutes; season with salt. Transfer to a small bowl and wipe skillet clean.

Heat a tortilla in the same skillet or on a comal over medium-high until golden brown but not crunchy on one side, about a minute. Turn tortilla over and scatter a quarter of the cheese over half of the toasted side. Arrange 2 squash blossoms and some of the onion mixture on top of cheese and fold tortilla in half to create a half-moon. Press down on it lightly to help tortilla adhere.

Continue cooking, turning once or twice and pressing occasionally, until cheese is melted and tortilla begins to brown and crisp in spots (turn down the heat if needed), about 3 minutes. Transfer to a plate. Repeat with remaining ingredients. – From Bon Appetit magazine

Squash Blossom Frittata

  • 12 eggs
  • 1 cup freshly grated Parmesan
  • 2 medium zucchini, rinsed and cut into 2-inch-long julienne strips (about 3 cups)
  • 3 Tbsp. olive oil
  • 1 onion, chopped fine
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1½ Tbsp. fresh thyme or basil leaves, minced
  • 6-8 zucchini blossoms, pistils removed if desired

In a bowl, whisk the eggs. Add ½ cup of the Parmesan and salt and pepper to taste, and whisk again until combined well. In a 12-inch, non-stick or cast-iron skillet, sauté zucchini in 2 Tbsp. of the oil over moderately high heat, stirring until softened, Using a slotted spoon, transfer to a small bowl.

Add remaining 1 Tbsp. oil to skillet and cook onion and bell pepper over moderate heat, stirring until softened. Add garlic and fresh herbs and cook for 1 minute. Add zucchini and salt and pepper, pour in the egg mixture, and arrange the zucchini blossoms decoratively on top.

Preheat broiler. Meanwhile, cook the frittata on stovetop over moderate heat, without stirring, for 12-15 minutes, or until the edge is set but the center is still soft, and sprinkle remaining ½ cup Parmesan over the top. Broil frittata under the broiler about 4 inches from the heat for 2-3 minutes, or until cheese is bubbling and golden.

Let cool in the skillet 5 minutes, run a thin knife around the edge, and slide the frittata onto a serving plate. Cut into wedges and serve warm or at room temperature. – From

10)  WARNING: REEF JUST OUTSIDE SHELTER BAY MARINA, PANAMA


Reminder from 2017  Christian and Vibe, SY Danish Blue

We want to warn other sailors of the reef just outside Shelter Bay Marina, Colon, Panama.
It is not marked and it is very dangerous for sailors arriving at night.
In Shelter Bay Marina we have been told that our sailboat Danish Blue is just one out of 12-13 sailboats,
which have hit the reef within the last 3-4 years. Danish Blue has now been hauled out for almost
4 months to be repaired after lying on the reef for 12-13 hours.
A few days ago, another sailor hit the reef.
The reef is not marked physically in any way.
It can be seen in daylight, but when arriving at night, it is impossible to see the reef.
Also, we have several charts of the area around Shelter Bay Marina, one chart is Eric Bauhaus’.
None of the charts state that there is a reef just outside Shelter Bay Marina.
Instead, the charts state that there is 4,5-5 meters depth on the specific place of the reef.

The position of the reef is:
South to north:
09 22.1895 N 079 56.7121 W
09 22.2948 N 079 56.7436 W
East to west:
09 22.2767 N 079 56.6413 W
09 22.2612 N 079 56.7996 W
Be aware to follow the small green buoys parallel to the breakwater on port side when entering into Shelter Bay Marina –
they are not visible on the charts and they are difficult to see at night.
All the green buoys have to be followed on port side when arriving from the Panama Canal.
The depth on the other side of the green buoys cannot be trusted.

Dispute Resolution

In the Dispute Resolution Section only, “we” and “us” are used to refer to you and Panama Posse together.

We each agree to first contact each other with any disputes and provide a written description of the problem, all relevant documents/information and the proposed resolution. You agree to contact us with disputes by contacting us at the address provided in these Terms of Use. We will contact you based on the contact information you have provided us.
We each agree to finally settle all disputes (as defined and subject to any specific exceptions below) only by arbitration. In arbitration, there’s no judge or jury and review is limited. However, just as a court would, the arbitrator must honor the terms and limitations in the Terms of Use and can award the same damages and relief, including any attorney’s fees authorized by law. The arbitrator’s decision and award is final and binding and judgment on the award may be entered in any court with maritime jurisdiction. We each also agree as follows:
“Disputes” are any claims or controversies against each other related in any way to our Websites, Website Content or these Terms of Use – this includes claims you bring against our employees, agents, affiliates or other representatives, and claims Panama Posse may bring against you.
If either of us wants to arbitrate a dispute, we agree to send written notice to the other providing a description of the dispute, previous efforts to resolve the dispute, all supporting documents/information, and the proposed resolution. We will send notice to you based on the contact information you have provided us and notice to us must be sent to: PanamaPosse .

We agree to make attempts to resolve the dispute. If we cannot resolve the dispute within seven hundred and twenty (720) days of receipt of the notice to arbitrate, then we may submit the dispute to formal arbitration.

The FAA applies to this Agreement and arbitration provision. We each agree the FAA’s provisions, not state law, govern all questions of whether a dispute is subject to arbitration.
The arbitration will be administered by a National Arbitration Forum (“NAF”) under its arbitration rules. If any NAF rule conflicts with these Terms of Use, these Terms of Use apply.
Unless we each agree otherwise, the Arbitration will be conducted by a single neutral arbitrator and will take place at the International Tribunal for the Law of the Sea, Am Internationalen Seegerichtshof 1, 22609 Hamburg Germany, otherwise, the Arbitration will take at a specified location on the high seas by the Panama Posse. The law of the seas applies to these Terms of Use will also apply during the arbitration.
We each agree not to pursue arbitration on a classwide basis. We each agree that any arbitration will be solely between you and us (not brought on behalf of or together with another individual’s claim). If for any reason any court or arbitrator holds that this restriction is unconscionable or unenforceable, then our agreement to arbitrate doesn’t apply and the dispute must be brought in court.
We each are responsible for our respective costs relating to counsel, experts, and witnesses, as well as any other costs relating to the arbitration. However, we will not cover any arbitration administrative or filing fees for a court action in the appropriate jurisdiction if you are seeking 1/1000 th of a bitcoin or more from us.

Either of us may not bring qualifying claims in small claims court.

TO THE EXTENT ALLOWED BY LAW, WE EACH WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO PURSUE DISPUTES ON A CLASSWIDE BASIS; THAT IS, TO EITHER JOIN A CLAIM WITH THE CLAIM OF ANY OTHER PERSON OR ENTITY, OR ASSERT A CLAIM IN A REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY ON BEHALF OF ANYONE ELSE IN ANY LAWSUIT, ARBITRATION OR OTHER PROCEEDING.

TO THE EXTENT ALLOWED BY LAW, WE EACH WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LAWSUIT, ARBITRATION OR OTHER PROCEEDING.
