The crew of *Big Lost* completed a 393-nautical-mile passage from Grenada to Bonaire, averaging 5.8 knots over four days.15:36 During the transit, the halyard on their Code 65 sail failed, requiring the crew to secure the sail on deck while sailing into the wind to maintain control.4:55 Upon arrival in Bonaire, the vessel entered a marina to accommodate visiting family and facilitate shore power connection.33:35 The boat’s Victron transformer system rejected the dock’s 30-amp, 120-volt shore power because the high dock voltage—133 volts—doubled through the boat's inverters to an unsafe 266 volts.34:48 To resolve this, the crew sought a 50-amp, 240-volt receptacle at a local chandlery to bypass the voltage-doubling process.36:46 Additionally, the crew addressed a malfunctioning BCD valve at a local dive shop.37:34 The passage was intentionally slowed to avoid a nighttime arrival in Bonaire, where anchoring is prohibited and mooring fields require daylight navigation.16:22
