A family crew completed a 169-mile, 47-hour nonstop passage from Luperon, Dominican Republic, to Puerto Rico across the Mona Passage.7:50 The crew navigated the passage during a period of light winds and four-foot swells to avoid the steep, short waves typically generated when Atlantic currents meet the shallow Hourglass Shoal.8:20 Despite the favorable weather, the motion caused seasickness for the children and the mother.5:52 The crew maintained the vessel’s watermaker and prepared pre-made meals to minimize galley work while underway.8:57 Upon arrival in Puerto Rico, the crew cleared customs using the CBP ROAM app, which required a video chat for final approval.11:48 After an initial stop in Rincon, the crew moved south to Boqueron to seek better protection from an approaching northerly wind event.12:45 The passage served as a challenging return to cruising after a period of inactivity.10:59
