BOATS NOT ACCEPTED IN COLOMBIA (Mar2017)
although it's 2nd hand info from guys currently dealing with this drama, apparently there were too many 'cowboy' sailing boats not doing the paperwork properly or at all and Colombia has just decided to shut down the ability of ships entering with bikes! The Stahlratte is currently off to Cuba, but would always do the paperwork properly, and the Wildcard was working closely to get this decision reversed. It looks like the guys who paid deposits on the Wildcard are still going to go on 22March, but we are going to ship with someone much cheaper and I've sent a few people ahead of me all with 100% ease and success. So I'm not here much, but please friend me on fb and send me a message if you want more details on shipping across the Darien...we are shipping around mid march in a week or so if you care to join.
