Ep. 17: Cruising Guide to Cuba Author Captain Cheryl Barr Interviewed by Linus Wilson

The Slow Boat Sailing Podcast is in Cuba! We talk about our trip to Nueva Gerona, Cuba to Cayo Largo on the Caribbean coast of Cuba. In April before the Slow Boat set sail for Cuba, I talked to Captain Cheryl Barr who wrote the recent Cruising Guide to Cuba: Volume 1 which covers Varadero, Havana, Cabo San Antonio, Cienfuegos, and Trinidad and all the places the Slow Boat visited. Cheryl Barr has been coming to Cuba since 1996 on her parents' schooner.

This episode is sponsored by Jenifer Clark’s Gulfstream. The Slow Boat crew relied on Jenifer Clark’s Gulfstream for their Panama trip thus far. Call 410-286-5270 or e-mail gulfstream@comcast.net so you can find out how their current and weather routing can aid you in your next blue water voyage.
