Ma’alahi Makes Bonaire

Wednesday, June 28 1030 AST
After 74 hours of the most incredible sailing passage we’ve ever made, Ma’alahi and crew have arrived in Bonaire. This is just a quick note to let everyone know that we made it safely. After a night’s rest I promise to write a more detailed account of what we’ve been up to for the past 5 weeks.

Heading Out to Bonaire

Sunday, June 25
We’re leaving St. John, USVI, this morning for Bonaire. We’ve got a good window on the weather and plenty of time to get both south and west of the tropical depression way out in the Atlantic. The passage should take between 72 and 80 hours to make the 435 miles down to Bonaire so we hope to arrive sometime Wednesday. We’ll write again when we get there.
