    My friend was hired to sail Mystic Rose from the Domincan Republic all the way to Florida. But one issue after another lead us down endless days of repairs. Every day sailing the Caribbean was a struggle, mixed with some of the most beautifuly places we'd ever seen. You wouldn't believe how gorgeous Hogsty Reef and the Blue Hole are. The water is crystal clear. And Hogsty Reef is an unihabited island!

    You will have learnt so much from this journey! I'm thinking maybe an electric outboard motor for no wind and no (diesel) motor days? You would need substantial batteries and solar panels though.

    Why did you guys stay on the boat as long as you did? Like, what motivated you to stay on board? What was the initial trip idea? So At what point could you have left but didn’t? 🍻

      Yo. Spykers! My friend was hired to take it from the DR to the states. He invited my along to hang out on what was gonna be a pleasure cruise, lots of fun stops on a recently repaired boat. Turned out to be the opposite!
      It was miserable a LOT of the time. There were a few fun moments.
      I stayed on to no abandon my friend, and was always thinking we'd fixed everything.. then something else would go south.
      My son left after a week in South Caicos. I could have, but again, my friend, the captain...
