Something not right?

Description

Crossing by boat with motorbike (GS1200) from Capurgana to Carti (Panama) in one day on a fast boat.

This is not an office, just a general location where the captain can be found by asking around.

Captains name: Bolo. Ph number +57 310 8947750 whattsapp, but no English.

Total cost was USD800.00 for the bike, panniers, bags, and two people. It took 8 hours total time, including loading, unloading, three fuel stops, and a long time in customs at Puerto Obaldia.

Great guy called Juan-Carlos (+57 314 5025402) who lives in Capurgana, speaks French and Spanish arranged a good launch (small boat) to take me, my husband and our classic adventure motorbike from Capurgana to Necocli. Came with us to insure safe passage end to end, 2 hour journey, captain drove steady at our request, his crew helped carry our bike. We tied it down with our straps, no problems. Cost us 1,600,000COP, which was crazy expensive but cheapest rate for express/private boat available. Alternative was to put motorbike on a cargo boat and us separate on a passenger boat, costs with baggage weight, cargo, tickets added up to ~1,000,000 COP and only go once a week. - we wanted to stay with the bike, you cannot go with it on the cargo boat and we’ve seen the capabilities of the seamen here.

In all taking small boats round the Darien was still cheaper than flying, a charter yacht or a shipping container.
