The trade winds over the north of Colombia are relentless and not giving us a safe opportunity to sail without experiencing up to 30-40 knot winds. So we are spending longer in Aruba than hoped - which means we might have to abandon our plans to stop in Colombia unfortunately.

Easiest country in the world to clear in?... possibly. Arrived 15 minutes before the office closed after a boisterous sail from Curacao. Cleared in and moved to anchor at surfside.

After nearly a year on the hard, Tuuletar is back in the water after a big push. Mark came back 2 weeks before Cat and Raf to do the anti-fouling and some preparation for the sail to Panama.
