I recently published an article for the web-based magazine Small Boats Monthly.

The magazine is about small boats and publishes some adventure narrative. I pitched the article I wrote about a traditional ulu race Kate and I sponsored and witnessed to editor Chris Cunningham and he was very interested not only in my writing, but also in the Guna Yala region its people, and of course in the ulus, the sailing dugout canoes they accompany Gunas in their everyday life.

He wanted me to expand the article including more info about Gunas, their traditions, and helping with very good editorial inputs that really improved the article.

I wrote about ulus before on this blog, but I am glad Small Boats Only would give to these wonderful boats a wider audience.

You can read the full article and the photos at this link. Enjoy.
