but thats what im saying tho. wouldnt it just be easier to take the FL strait route? it looks like it would only take 2 days to PR or a neighbouring island and re supply and 2 more days.
the south american route is far. you have to remember about supplies, you have to eat and bring water along the way or buy along the way. looking at the map that has to take a good month or 2. mexico is a long country. 4-5 days > 2 months
You gotta remember all this shyt is illegal brah, and the Mexicans got the border crossing game sowed up most of the coyotes are Mexicans themselves that charge poorer countries an arm and a leg just to get in the us.
The thing about the straits is this, the wind blows in the wrong direction and the least of your problems is being blow 200 miles off course, so you'll make it past the coast guard radar but your on a rickety ass raft in the Atlantic ocean with great whites and blacktip sharks and bullsharks WAITING for you to fukk up. And if your on a slightly bigger boat you risk the coast guard catching you and the mission being all for nothing. So you know, the straits is a quicker shot but there's a 70% chance you get lost at sea or die cause of a storm or get thrown into the water with sharks. That shyt is only for the extremely desperate which sadly both Haiti and Cuba are really desperate countries
so the trek through Mexico is the "safer option" but you've gotta deal with Cartels, Coyotes, Crooked Mexican border patrol, MS13 all that shyt. But you know humans are more forgiving than the sea... Just this year alone you wouldn't believe how many people I heard of dying in the waters tryna get here
