Ripping wind and diesel failure
Great wind 18-20 sustained. 2-3 foot waves. Down wind to the island before some exhilarating upwind bashing. Boat sailed fantastic.

Isla El Venado to San Carlos, Mexico
Canal de Los Barcos, Cuba to Isla Mujeres Outer Banks, Mexico
10-18 knots true wind from the SE. 2-5 ft waves on side. Gulf Stream offered up to 5 knots of current causing a motor sail steer to heading of 30 degrees. Slowed speed by over 2 knots averaging 4.7 to 5 knots. Motor sailed for most of the trip due to 10 knot winds on the beam at night and then strong current.
