Stranded on Panamanian Island
My buddy Max and I were stranded on this island between Panama & Colombia. We had hired an Italian captain to take us to Colombia from Panama on a 26 foot boat.
About 2 days into the trip, Max and I couldn't stand the high seas anymore so we asked the captain to get us off the boat. Normally I have a strong stomach but the waves were so big I was being tossed around the boat, and felt like throwing up the entire time. It wasn't fun.
The captain told us there is a small island, big enough for a small plane to land and pick us up.
It took almost a week waiting for the plane to come get us. In the mean time we hung out on the island playing with sand and eating rice and baracuda and hanging out with the local indigenous family who actually didn't take to kindly to us.
It ended up taking the captain 8 days to sail from Panama to Colombia so I'm glad we did get off the boat. There was no way I was going to survive that 8 day journey on the high seas.
