I decided for the second one which was supposed to have a depth of 4m in the center. I figured the waves to be 2m so there would in theory hopefully be enough water left under the keel (Amy draws 1,1m). We were flying towards the entrance but I didn\u2019t dare reduce the sail so we could keep a straight course and wouldn\u2019t be pushed around by the waves. I had a huge lump in my throat when the echo sounder started showing ever smaller numbers but I had read that the charts were apparently correct for this area and had to rely on this information. They were correct, the numbers increased and in the lagoon there were no waves at all but still the same wind. I had to motor to the anchorage which was slow going. There was on catamaran from Australia. Coming nearer to the mangroves the wind let off a little bit at least and dropping the anchor was easy and it held immediately. The Australians came over in the dinghy and invited me to their boat for a drink. We had a nice evening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-4 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"575\" data-id=\"5250\" src=\"https:\/\/kaibrueckner.de\/blog_amy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Jobos,Ponce - 14-1024x575.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5250\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kaibrueckner.de\/blog_amy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Jobos,Ponce%20-%2014-1024x575.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/kaibrueckner.de\/blog_amy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Jobos,Ponce%20-%2014-300x169.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/kaibrueckner.de\/blog_amy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Jobos,Ponce%20-%2014-768x432.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/kaibrueckner.de\/blog_amy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Jobos,Ponce%20-%2014-1536x863.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/kaibrueckner.de\/blog_amy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Jobos,Ponce%20-%2014.jpeg 2000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 767px) 89vw, (max-width: 1000px) 54vw, (max-width: 1071px) 543px, 580px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"575\" data-id=\"5251\" src=\"https:\/\/kaibrueckner.de\/blog_amy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Jobos,Ponce - 15-1024x575.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5251\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kaibrueckner.de\/blog_amy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Jobos,Ponce%20-%2015-1024x575.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/kaibrueckner.de\/blog_amy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Jobos,Ponce%20-%2015-300x169.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/kaibrueckner.de\/blog_amy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Jobos,Ponce%20-%2015-768x432.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/kaibrueckner.de\/blog_amy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Jobos,Ponce%20-%2015-1536x863.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/kaibrueckner.de\/blog_amy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Jobos,Ponce%20-%2015.jpeg 2000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 767px) 89vw, (max-width: 1000px) 54vw, (max-width: 1071px) 543px, 580px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" data-id=\"5253\" src=\"https:\/\/kaibrueckner.de\/blog_amy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Jobos,Ponce - 17-1024x576.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5253\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kaibrueckner.de\/blog_amy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Jobos,Ponce%20-%2017-1024x576.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/kaibrueckner.de\/blog_amy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Jobos,Ponce%20-%2017-300x169.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/kaibrueckner.de\/blog_amy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Jobos,Ponce%20-%2017-768x432.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/kaibrueckner.de\/blog_amy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Jobos,Ponce%20-%2017-1536x864.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/kaibrueckner.de\/blog_amy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Jobos,Ponce%20-%2017.jpeg 2000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 767px) 89vw, (max-width: 1000px) 54vw, (max-width: 1071px) 543px, 580px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"575\" data-id=\"5252\" src=\"https:\/\/kaibrueckner.de\/blog_amy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Jobos,Ponce - 16-1024x575.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5252\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kaibrueckner.de\/blog_amy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Jobos,Ponce%20-%2016-1024x575.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/kaibrueckner.de\/blog_amy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Jobos,Ponce%20-%2016-300x169.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/kaibrueckner.de\/blog_amy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Jobos,Ponce%20-%2016-768x432.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/kaibrueckner.de\/blog_amy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Jobos,Ponce%20-%2016-1536x863.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/kaibrueckner.de\/blog_amy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Jobos,Ponce%20-%2016.jpeg 2000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 767px) 89vw, (max-width: 1000px) 54vw, (max-width: 1071px) 543px, 580px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n<p><div class=\"leaflet-map WPLeafletMap\" style=\"height:350px;
