Leo Goolden departs Panama singlehanded aboard Taliho, bound for southeastern Cuba with a cargo of food and medical supplies destined for a local Cuban charity serving communities hit hardest by the humanitarian crisis and still recovering from last year's hurricane.0:12 The planned route heads east first to gain a better wind angle, then north across the Caribbean Sea.0:12 Goolden identifies three layered risks: the physical demands of a singlehanded Caribbean crossing during strong trade-wind season, including sleep management and weather routing; a security risk in the Caribbean; and the highest-probability risk — being denied entry to Cuba or refused permission to offload the supplies, given the difficulty of reaching Cuban government officials.2:34 The brown boxes stacked aboard are medical supplies sourced from a charity-provided list; food and other goods are stowed beneath.4:08 Goolden chose not to crowdfund the supplies, citing uncertainty about actually clearing Cuban customs and a personal preference to do the work first.4:22 Securing the loose cargo before departure is the immediate practical problem he faces before leaving.5:34
