Tight weather window of 20-25 kt, but it worked. We had 2 reefs in the main the whole passage. Lots of tacking to stay out of the west going current . We had great rounding of Punta Gallinas aka as the Cape Horn of Colombia. Lots of fishing vessel in the Golf of Venezuela - floating nets ! Check in to Aruba was easy- the biggest challenge on the passage was the docking at the Customs dock, luckily we had a bunch of Venezuelan fishermen helping us. Our Spanish is getting better ;)
