Cubans reach Xcalak

Fourteen undocumented Cubans on a rickety barge managed to make it to shore in the Mexican state of Quintana Roo after 17 days at sea without provisions. Fishermen from the coastal community of Xcalak were the first to spot them. The weary, dehydrated crew said that after leaving Cuba, their motor gave out and they had to improvise a sail to continue the journey.
