Most voyagers would not have had the opportunity to do a shake down cruise all the way up the East coast from Miami, before heading out. You did and would have made any system additions or adjustments YOU felt necessary during that time. By the time you started the crossing, YOU were confident in your preparations. You were successful and I applaud you. There will always be some things, in hindsight you may have done a little better as you are now a better, more experienced sailor.
Enjoy your accomplishment, you deserve it.
