Tate McDaniel of the Sundowner Sails Again's blog and uTube channel talked to me over the weekend. This episode looks at getting his boat, a Westsail 32' named Sundowner, ready for a round the world trip. This covers the first half of his trip in 2015, crossing the Gulf of Mexico from New Orleans to Key West. He discusses his travels in Cuba and his trip to and time in Isla Mujeres with his wife Dani. In the next episode he discusses his trip to Provedencia, the San Blas Islands in Panama, and why gas prices and El Nino make 2016 a good year to go RVing.
I also talk about the current changing state of Cuba regulations and my experience with the application process. It is conceivable that sailing to Cuba could get a lot easier in a few days.
