Written as connection to 27P:
18th-This might have been the worst day as an experience, my idea was to do 2/3 of the remaining distance to Puerto Raul Marin as I wanted to do the remaining third before the low tide peak at 12:40 of the 19th. Thing is, there are no proper camping spots at the targeted distance. In general the day went by quite calmly and all considered it was ok, by the time I reached the zone were I eventually camped, the wind was too strong to keep paddling West bound. Thus I camped the best I could at this location S 43,885427° O 72,835854°, this location I believe is only viable during the dry season to have sufficient safety distance from the river. During wet season one will have to find a spot between the present islands's vegetations. In any case, camping on the riverbed revealed to be fatal in terms of mosquitoes, a presence I hadn't yet seen on the GPT in this amount. Really, do not camp on this trait unless you are ready for hundreds of them surrounding you and your tent, so much that you will want to hold your bathroom needs for the next day. I thus suggest camping before, when the morphology of the river allows sufficient distance from the water and there is proper ground to camp on, rather than river sands.
19th- I started quite early to be sure to not take the inversion of he tide at 12:40. Unfortunately after 5 minutes I lost my insta360 go 3s in the water, and losing 45min searching for it in the low water only resulted in 45min delay. I thus continued. After few km I found three kayakers that were camping on the beach after the one I camped on. I got acquainted enough that they invited me to stay for the night with them at Puerto Raul Marin. I thus continued as they were definitely faster with a kayak than me with a packraft. The day was calm, nothing to be noticed if not the always present logs in the water. The arrival was quite rough as due to my delay I indeed had around one hour of paddling against the tide and wind, by this time the kayakers had joined me back so that I had company at least.
Overall the river is a nice paddling experience, you go over quite long stretches of uninhabited land and long nice panoramic sections.
