James Banemalo, Sailing a Wharram Catamaran

James sails a Wharram catamaran with two free-standing masts side-by-side and Chinese junk rigged. I met him in Bocas del Toro, Panama, and later in San Blas, in 2023. When I interviewed him, he was in Madeira.

We talk about San Blas (Guna Yala) Panama, the jungle, leaving Panama without clearing out, arriving in Colombia without a zarpe from Panama, rescuing a friend, sailing from Panama to Colombia, squalls, Islas de Rosario, the boat Banemalo - a Wharram Tiki 46, what a Wharram is, tarred nylon line, sailing a junk rig, sailing the boat on different points of sail, tacking angle, the difficulty of sailing upwind in the boat, Cartagena, trading goods, meeting people, sailing north from Colombia, Jamaica, breaking a batten, Port Antonio - Jamaica, the Windward Passage, the Ragged Islands, running aground, the family of Wharram owners, building a doghouse on the deck, cooking without gas, Bermuda, the Azores, Galicia, Spain, extending his EU visa, Porto, Potrugal, a storm in the anchorage, dragging anchor, Madeira, almost losing the boat in a flood on a river, and more.
