We put the sails down at 02:30am last night and motored into a dark mooring field off the town of Kralendijk. We want to do some diving while we are here in Bonaire, but our main goal is to learn how to pronounce Kralendijk. It was a good passage. Did 424 miles through the water over 58.5 hours. Nice downwind trades. It would have been ugly going the other way, but downwind its pretty pleasant. Mostly 16-25kts of wind, with a few times where it stayed up at 28kts. We're getting the dinghy ready now to go in and clear Customs and Immigration and hopefully take our mandatory movie screening of how to protect the marine environment.
Water temp is 89*F.
