The Mast, the Poor Man’s Drone
Scott Stolnitz of the Marina del Rey-based Switch 51 Beach House wanted an aerial shot when locking through the Pedro Miguel Locks of the Panama Canal. Not having a drone — yet — he went up the mast to get the accompanying photo.
The boats with Beach House are, at left, Kristiane from Australia, and at right, Free Wheel from Gibraltar/Sweden.
Stolnitz would be close to completing his circumnavigation now, were it not for the fact that he’s sailing across the Pacific again to Australia.
