The crew of Wildly Intrepid departs Mayaguana, Bahamas, on June 16–17 for a 60-mile passage to Turks and Caicos — a leg they describe as one of their roughest.1:31 Waves of 5–6 feet at a 6-second period cause the boat to slam continuously; 30–31-knot gusts push the rail into the water.4:17 Water enters through a cabin window, a vent, and a bathroom grate, soaking the fridge, scooter, and nav desk.6:20 A forgotten open toilet valve adds more water to the cabin floor.0:20 The crew notes the forecast worsened overnight from when they made the go/no-go call, and concludes that nighttime departures work better on the thorny path because easterly winds ease and seas lay down after dark.17:24 At Turks and Caicos, they pick up mooring balls on the west side of West Caicos — available 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. only, reserved for commercial divers — before rounding to Sapodilla Bay to check in, which they describe as easy and pleasant.7:26 Groceries at the wholesale market run $60 for two full bags, roughly half Bahamas prices.13:58 An El Niña year is blamed for persistent, unvarying trade winds making eastward progress unusually difficult.18:43 The crew waits for a window to cross the banks toward the Dominican Republic, planning to shelter in Luperon for hurricane season.11:37
