The crew completes a 300-nautical-mile passage to Luperon, Dominican Republic, opting to anchor overnight in a nearby bay to avoid a nighttime arrival.1:23 The final approach to Luperon requires careful navigation through a narrow, shallow channel marked by sandbanks, where depths drop to 2.10 meters.5:59 The crew relies on the charted track to navigate the entrance, noting that a French vessel ran aground in the same channel shortly after their arrival and required a tidal cycle to refloat.7:30 The anchorage itself offers calm, protected water, though the crew notes the heat inside the hurricane hole necessitates trips to nearby beaches for swimming.8:29 Observations of the local area include a high concentration of resorts and evidence of sex tourism, which contrasts with the quiet, isolated nature of the anchorage.2:22 The crew plans to spend two weeks exploring the region by dinghy and diving.8:30 Careful adherence to charted depths and local navigation advice is essential when entering shallow, poorly marked tropical harbors.
