They are still in Trinidad, where they have had their gearbox fixed, and various electronics tweaked or updated. Everything is now ship-shape.
The airline lost their spinnaker pole on the way out so they are arranging to have a replacement sent to them in the next week or so. In the meantime they are stocking up the boat, and preparing to head off westwards as soon as the weather improves...
Now on their way to Curacao, via Bonaire and, possibly, Los Testigos islands off Venezuela.
All is well; the boat has been fully stocked up, they've had the gearbox/driveplate fixed, and everything else is now working. All that is left is for them to pick up a new spinnaker pole in Curacao, to replace the one the airline lost on their way out there.
