600 days to cocos island

This is a beautifully filmed true adventure in full color about a two-year sailing voyage along the west coasts of Mexico, Central America, and the offshore islands of Cocos and the Galapagos. The California couple took this incredible adventure in a 32 foot sailboat touching many Mexican ports as well as places in Guatemala, El Salvador, Nicaragua, and Costa Rica, before heading off shore to Cocos Island and the Galapagos Islands. Shown in the film are their encounters with wildlife such as, Sperm Whales, Sea Turtles, Giant Manta Rays, Marine Iguanas and many tropical birds including Blue Footed and Red Footed Boobies, Albatross, Great Blue Herons, Frigate Birds, Oyster Catchers, Pelicans and Tropic Birds and Penguins. The Galapagos Islands has a surprisingly cool climate for being right on the Equator. Its climate is influenced by the cold Humboldt Current, which sweeps up from the Antarctic and through the Islands, causing an unusual mix of animals from both the tropics, and the Polar Regions. This was filmed by former Hollywood cameraman and is of excellent quality.
