Join us as SV Goose takes on the legendary Panama Canal—one of the most iconic passages in the sailing world! With an amazing crew and a fantastic Canal pilot, we made the full transit in just one day—without using an agent. 😅


From prepping lines to navigating locks, this was hands-down one of the most intense and stressful days of our sailing journey... and to top it off, it happened to be my birthday! 🎉 Because why not spend your special day wrangling lines, dodging tankers, and trying not to have a heart attack in the middle of the canal?


Whether you’re curious about doing the crossing yourself or just want to see what it’s really like from a sailor’s point of view, this one’s for you.


📍 Highlights:

– Full DIY transit (yep, no agent!)

– Epic crew vibes

– Stress levels: 100

– Birthday Fun 🎂
