It took two very sweaty and arduous weeks for Steve and Jason to pedal the 500-miles from Providenciales to Miami. As with most voyages, the most dangerous time is at the beginning and at the end: early on a northerly blew them into Cuban national waters prompting a visit by semi-automatic wielding militia in an unmarked gunboat. On another occasion the pedal system locked up within a few hundred feet of a reef, and the voyage nearly ended in catastrophe in the closing stages when a container ship came within a few hundred feet of running Moksha down in the Gulf Stream.
