Part 2 - 600 Days: Cocos to the Galapagos Islands
takes us from Costa Rica, where the couple's son, Ron joins them for an offshore passage to the mysterious and uninhabited Cocos Island.
Along the way they have a close encounter with whales, hook a shark, and ghost through the doldrums. On the 8th day, they site Cocos Island and make a dramatic anchorage through uncharted waters.
Ashore, they discover signs of previous visitors carved into rocks and explore the dense rainforest by following stream beds inland.
After several weeks, they set sail for the Galapagos Islands lying 450 miles southwest at the equator. There they visit several atolls where Darwin's discoveries led to his theory of evolution.
Finally, they sail home on a nonstop 40 day, 4,000 mile ocean voyage to San Diego.
