Left Combate Puerto Rico Monday after a weekend of getting everything ready and storing provisions, clothes, filling water tanks, etc.
Today is Wednesday and was going to be a rainy day so we stopped at Patillas Puerto Rico after getting gasoline at Salinas Marina Tuesday and spending the night in mangrove at Cayo del Barco. Tomorrow if weather permits will head for Vieques 31NM from here. Then Saint Thomas and St John Island.

Here is my inReach tracking page: https://share.garmin.com/JAlonso

Just leaving the ramp.


Gas 99 cents a liter got 54 liters / 14 gallons


A night in the mangrove.

Looks like a great start! Keep those pics coming. Thanks for sharing!

Made it to Vieques 30 NM @ 5.5 Knots still rainy but it looks worse than it was.



Installed a camera on the bow worked pretty good will improve on the install later. Used a cheap camera and a car transmitter and receiver connected to the chartplotter.



Screen shot on the Raymarine MFD at anchor. Nice water temp

The camera on your chrtplotter display is way cool.

Looks like you're having a blast!

Arrived at St John was a very bumpy ride today 6 hours to St Thomas filled gas tanks 20 gallons then head to St John arriving at 4. Will relax now at Maho Bay for a couple days before checking in to the BVI. And start sailing.

Did you have to motor due to lack of wind or time constraints?

Looking forward to seeing solar upgrades.
