Dinner
on the beach with the Caletas de Campos contingent! With boats No
Regrets, Mar Y sol, and Juliet. We were all drenched…that’s a pretty
tough dinghy landing. 💦💦💦

Dinner
in Caleta de Campos with Mar y Sol and Juliet. Then we swamped Mar y
Sol’s dinghy before we could get past the waves on the way out. Totally
soaked. It took forever to bail her out for a second attempt
(successful). Two women and one of their kids came over with a small
beach bucket to help. Very nice of them.

 6) GESTALT GESTALT GESTALT 

HOW TO PASS ON INFORMATION WITHIN THE PANAMA POSSE EFFICIENTLY 

What is Gestalt and Why You Need To Know It – 

Gestalt
Language Protocol is something I picked up from training in connection
with a couple of different groups one of them being EO Gestalt Language
Protocol may sound suspiciously like something the Secret Service uses
to decode enemy communications, but really, it is simply a set of ideas
about how to communicate with other CAPTAINS & CREW and
individuals in a non-threatening manner so that people within the group
feel like they can really share and learn. Here are some general ideas
about how it works:

1. Speak from your own experiences rather than giving advice or opinions

2. Use “I” statements instead of “You” statements  

3. Speak in past tense – this is what I did   

4. Avoid the “Should”, “Would”, “Could”

5. Do not speak in generalities, be specific 

 

It can take a lot of practice IT IS HARD !!! 

but I have found that when members don’t openly communicate it is often
because they feel threatened. Nobody likes to be reminded that they
messed up up or that maybe don’t have or understand a solution. Whatever
the case may be, Gestalt Language Protocol eliminates many of the
barriers and obstacles to real communication. It is centered on creating
a safe environment where people feel safe, help each other and NOT
feeling inferior.  

We have set up a GESTALT MONITOR account in the LINE GROUP.

9) TSUNAMIS IN TONGA

In 2009, Captain Dietmar’s SY Carinthia was at anchor in Vava’u Northern Tonga when the Samoa Tsunami hit.

At
the time we had a local net on VHF 26 and it was clear for those in
shallow anchorages to get out – we had 10 minutes – so we weighed anchor
FAST and got to 130 feet of water depth in time. There was no feeling
of the wave in deep water. Other boats touched briefly and then get
out.. So it depends on the bottom your hull /keel and the severity of
the tsunami impact. Our vessel can sit on it’s keels but that is not the
case for every other yacht.

Another vessel sailed right over the epicenter of the underwater earthquake which caused the tsunami and also felt nothing

Near
shore though things get a little more dire. In the marina in Pago Pago a
vessel crushed and killed a sailor as he was trying to untie his vessel
and fell between the dock and his yacht and the swell crushed him. Here
is the link watch what happened in Pago Pago https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gaM8TPTBodI

 

In
most marinas the depth is shallow and therefore the impact on yachts
attached to cleats and quick water movement can create a lot of damage
for both the docks and yachts with this quick energy transfer. Rob on
Avant was in Chiapas and had this to report.  “During the first
Panama Posse the tsunami in Chiapas destroyed the marina and flooded the
dry yard (with Avant in the dry yard). Posse members there at the time
took refuge but climbing onto the workshop roof (this in the middle of
the night, the earthquake hit at about midnight). 

There
were no injuries, and no boats were damaged. This was amazing as all
the docks floated free of their pilings and were adrift in the basin.
They subsequently rebuilt the marina to withstand a similar event.”

Hunga Tonga Hunga Ha’apai Island 

The
birth of a new island in the southwestern Pacific Ocean around Dec. 19,
2014 via tephra-dominated hydro-magmatic processes (surtseyan-style)
was witnessed by NASA’s Earth Observing System sensors during the course
of its month-long construction phase. Such eruptions are not uncommon
in this region and similar events occurred in 2008-2009 with ephemeral
island formation and subsequent destruction over a period of months.

The
volcano is usually not much to look at. It consists of two small
uninhabited islands, Hunga-Ha’apai and Hunga-Tonga, poking about 100m
above sea level 65km north of Tonga’s capital Nuku‘alofa. But hiding
below the waves is a massive volcano, around 1800m high and 20km wide.

10) TSUNAMI ALERTS

 

In
the 5 years of the Posse, we have ‘enjoyed’ two tsunami events (the
Chiapas tsunami in year one, and this year’s Tonga tsunami). So while
these are rare, they do happen. 

National
authorities throughout the Panama Posse route do post tsunami warnings,
but they are in the local language and may be on various government
websites, Facebook pages and Twitter feeds most Posse members will not
know about, making their utility dubious. 

There
is one international tsunami warning center: the UNESCO tsunami warning
center. They don’t post the notices anywhere, but you can subscribe
here: https://lists.unesco.org/wws/subscribe/tsunami-information-ioc.
After you subscribe you will receive world wide tsunami alerts and
updates via email, many of which I shared in the Posse line group. 

Many tsunami notices are also posted on https://www.tsunami.gov,
but as a USA-Canada focused service the ‘Non-US Canada’ alerts are
often ‘late’ (and in this event, were not displaying due to a web
glitch). 

Having
said that, the UNESCO system is imperfect and it’s infrastructure is
poor. The first UNESCO warnings didn’t come out until 1547 local for me,
several hours after the USA warnings were out and only minutes before
the first waves hit Central America. Apparently this is because it’s a
semi automated system based on earthquakes, and the Tonga event was a
volcano based tsunami (which they didn’t plan for in the system). But I
suggest all Posse members subscribe for alerts. 

In
the event of a tsunami warning, the best place to be is at sea in
>100’ of water. Be aware that local shoreline topography and
bathymetry can and will affect how a tsunami behaves in any particular
area, and long inlets, bays, and some anchorages can act as a ‘lens’ to
focus the power of even a small tsunami to devastating effect (as
happened in Chiapas during Posse #1). 

Stay safe out there!

11) THE HUNGA TONGA HUNGA HA’APAI ISLAND  

6 types of volcanic causes of Tsunamis – and below is what happened on Saturday  

The caldera is a crater-like depression around 5km across. Small eruptions
(such as in 2009 and 2014/15) occur mainly at the edge of the caldera,
but very big ones come from the caldera itself. These big eruptions are
so large the top of the erupting magma collapses inward, deepening the
caldera.

Looking at the chemistry of past eruptions, we now think the small eruptions
represent the magma system slowly recharging itself to prepare for a big
event.

We found evidence of two huge past eruptions from the Hunga caldera in
deposits on the old islands. We matched these chemically to volcanic ash
deposits on the largest inhabited island of Tongatapu, 65km away, and
then used radiocarbon dates to show that big caldera eruptions occur
about ever 1000 years, with the last one at AD1100.

With this knowledge, the eruption on January 15 seems to be right on schedule for a “big one”.

Tonga us still in the middle of this major eruptive sequence and many aspects
remain unclear, partly because the island is currently obscured by ash
clouds.

The two earlier eruptions on December 20 2021 and January 13 2022 were of
moderate size. They produced clouds of up to 17km elevation and added
new land to the 2014/15 combined island.

The latest eruption has stepped up the scale in terms of violence. The ash
plume is already about 20km high. Most remarkably, it spread out almost
concentrically over a distance of about 130km from the volcano, creating
a plume with a 260km diameter, before it was distorted by the wind.

This demonstrates a huge explosive power – one that cannot be explained by
magma-water interaction alone. It shows instead that large amounts of
fresh, gas-charged magma have erupted from the caldera.

The eruption also produced a tsunami throughout Tonga and neighbouring Fiji
and Samoa. Shock waves traversed many thousands of kilometres, were
seen from space, and recorded in New Zealand some 2000km away. Soon
after the eruption started, the sky was blocked out on Tongatapu, with
ash beginning to fall.

All these signs suggest the large Hunga caldera has awoken. Tsunami are
generated by coupled atmospheric and ocean shock waves during an
explosions, but they are also readily caused by submarine landslides and
caldera collapses.

It remains unclear if this is the climax of the eruption. It represents a
major magma pressure release, which may settle the system.

A warning, however, lies in geological deposits from the volcano’s
previous eruptions. These complex sequences show each of the 1000-year
major caldera eruption episodes involved many separate explosion events.

Hence we could be in for several weeks or even years of major volcanic unrest
from the Hunga-Tonga-Hunga-Ha’apai volcano. For the sake of the people
of Tonga I hope not.

13) BEATA AT PUNTA GALERA

FROM GOOD NAUTICAL 

Punta Galera located 73NM from Puerto Angel is a marginal anchorage
with little protection from the wind and none from the swell.
Breakwaters built at the river mouth behind the point create a great
point break which attracts surfers to the small community of Galera. The
anchorage is usually very rolly is only tenable in calm conditions.

getting close to the Ixtapa marina channel. They closed the channel
right after Mar y Sol and us got in. It was pretty hairy. According to
the tide tables we were supposed to be at slack tide, but it was
anything but slack. When we rounded the corner to the right we grounded
in 5.5’ of water (that’s our draft) but we’re able to wrist our way into
deeper water. The tidal current was running so hard that at full
throttle we were only doing 1.5 knots. Two guys in a panga were waiting
for us at the turn and guided us in, helping with the dock lines as
well.
