The voyage will be comprised of four distinct legs.Trainees may apply for one or more legs with no restriction as to numbers of legs except for availability at the time of application.

Ship's Log:
Spent a delightful day and a half in Quepos, a small town 30 miles south of the Gulf of Nicoya. We found people to be very friendly, the town filled with interesting shops and delicious food available at a variety of resturants. We left Quepos at 1300hrs today for Bahia Herradura, a moderate sized bay north of a favored surfing beach known as Jaco. Our plan is to weigh anchor early tomorrow and move the 2 miles to Jaco to spend the morning surfing. During the afternoon we will be heading north into the gulf to visit a few more areas before having to be in Punta Areans for the 09th. These last three days will be packed with as much as posible.
