Miss Lone Star departs Roques and motors south to Golfito, Costa Rica — the furthest south Aubrey has sailed — arriving in flat-calm, near-windless conditions typical of the season.1:13 The diesel engine, Houdini, has been burning oil heavily, and Aubrey tops it off before leaving.10:41 The windlass bogs down while retrieving 300 feet of chain, initially suspected to be a power issue but unresolved.11:51 The more pressing problem: multiple cabin leaks discovered during rain, with water dripping from at least two windows and pooling inside.16:13 Jordan and crew Savannah attempt to locate and contain the leaks while Aubrey flies home from Golfito's airport — a 10-minute walk from the anchorage — to spend roughly ten days with family.6:50 Before departing, the crew searches for a dinghy dock charging $30 a week.14:29 A squall rolls in after Aubrey leaves, with Savannah bailing out the dinghy and the crew managing the boat shorthanded.17:45 The episode ends with the leaks unresolved and a storm approaching.21:40
