We motored from Mayaguana to the West Banks of the Turks and Caicos—decent motorsail overall. The wind was flukey, so not much help there, but now comes the fun part. We’re anchored out on the bank, and there’s a big system heading our way. Fingers crossed it just brings a nice fresh rinse for the boat and nothing more. Storms at sea? Not my favorite. Love them from solid ground. Tomorrow, we’ll push further east across the banks for another long day, getting into position to jump to Samaná—weather permitting. Excited to see and smell mountains and to get this stress of this first big leg of the thorny path outta the way!
