In Maracaibo, when sailing along the Caribbean Sea, if speeding with a tailwind, can you skip all the small towns in the same great cycle?

In Pfister's acclaimed Caribbean sailing game Maracaibo: my sailboat has extremely strong sailing propulsion. May I ask, can I directly move a full 7 steps in one turn, skip multiple small towns, and rush into a large city in one go? Can the actions of the small towns I skipped still be performed later by moving backward?
