11.56.784 N 067.25.856 W

We are still in Venezuelan waters (one lady told us we had 48 hrs transit time, so we thought we would risk it.

Ave de Barlovento is half way between Las Rochas and Bonaire. A lovely remote spot with a small island with lots of birds on and reefs. It has been pretty windy 25+ and a very rolly sail. We are very glad for a overnight rest.
