The weather was predictable - setting off in those conditions shows the desperation
Nah, stupidity is more like it. Desperation can wait for a day with better weather, stupidity... well...
By the way, look what some Dominicans found on a yola off the coast of Saona Island...
One of the guys says "What an animal!" Yep, seeing that in person would be enough to kill some people simply from that. lol And that's a small creature compared to humback whales. They should show that video prior to a yola departing for Puerto Rico.
