Explore Sailing Voyages in Cayman Islands 🇰🇾

6-20 knots of true wind with up to 10 foot waves. Motored 1st 12 hours and then sailed from close reach to beam sail in rough seas. We decided to sail further away from Nicaragua point. Became rougher with motor sail into waves. We encountered 3 fishing boats in middle of the night as sailing without lights. Mark diverted around one and I was not feeling well. The next day I developed a migraine and was vomiting and weak . We pulled into Providencia around 8:30 pm with a well lit channel and anchored in the dark. I was just recovering from my incapacitating headache.

Head winds until we got to the Windward passage on day 5. Wind speed everything from 3 - 20+ knots. Heading N to NNE across the trades after passing between Cuba and Haiti was pleasant though we had little wind at times. As we approached Bermuda the weather deteriorated and we had head winds up to 18 knots. The last few hours were exhilarating sailing close hauled in 18 knots.

Wind 4-20 knots. 2 ft waves. Motored and tried to raise the spinnaker. Only 3 knots SOG. As rounded to inlet and made it across the pass, wind arrived and sailed south on a close reach while tacking.

Motored back to the anchorage after trying to kite surf

Wind 13-16 knots on broad reach sail. Used asymmetrical spinnaker for the 1st time and was fantastic. 6.5-9 knots apparent wind with 5-6.5 knots SOG. 2 foot waves. Anchored to kite surf but sargasm and untangling lines were too difficult.

Flat conditions motor to anchorage in 8-6 feet of water.

10-20 knots of true wind on the beam. Waves up to 3 feet. Reefed and then unreefed. Passed through coral cut and watched for 6 ft depths. Sting rays were very tame upon the snorkel.
