My fastest sail yet! From Martinique to Puerto Real, Puerto Rico - 440nm total, 200nm in 24 Hours

Join me aboard Mirage, our Amel 50, for a pure and immersive 440-mile passage from Le Marin, Martinique to Puerto Real, Puerto Rico. No music. Little narration. Just the sound of the waves, the wind, and the boat slicing through the Caribbean Sea. Day 1 delivered perfect sailing conditions - the best I’ve ever had on this route. With our Code 0 flying, Mirage surged forward at a 125° true wind angle and 23–24 knots of breeze, covering an incredible 200 nautical miles in the first 24 hours. The Code 0 proved once again to be a mighty sail. Day 2 brought calmer winds at 12–14 knots, a peaceful change of pace… But on Day 3, the wind returned and carried us straight into Puerto Real, right on schedule. I was joined by an old friend - recently retired and now discovering the joy of Caribbean sailing. He kept watch with me at night and shared every sunrise, sunset, and mile of this crossing. We end the passage with a well-deserved dinner in Puerto Real to celebrate a journey well sailed.
