Contact Bruce Van Sant - I beleive he stills lives in Luperon.
Somebody on the board will let you know his details, I am sure.
This guy is famous for his sailing exploits.
He wrote a book a about sailing the 'wrong' way round the Caribbean - "The Gentleman's Guide to Passages South"
It is generally a lumpy beat to weather going east along the D.R. North coast.

But if hubby crossed the Atlantic he will know about trade winds. But be warned - you may well quickly find yourself on a lee-shore with steep seas.

Good luck!
