Phase One of the Blue Rim 5™ Global Sailing Expedition is the Alabama → Bahamas → Caribbean → Panama coastal progression — a disciplined, sail-first build phase designed to refine systems, strengthen seamanship, and establish the expedition culture in real water.
This first phase is about repetition, navigation discipline, anchoring standards, weather judgment, and operational maturity. Each coastal segment builds confidence, capability, and cohesion within the developing fleet.
After reaching Panama, Catamaran Dan will operate structured Panama → Belize → Panama Rim Run™ circuits beginning each January — strengthening routines, deepening reef immersion, and building fleet alignment season by season.
When the fleet is disciplined, aligned, and properly assembled, Blue Rim 5™ expands beyond the Caribbean and continues its global circumnavigation.
