....that Progreso Port Authority to "US port" and reverse ferry went "dark" back in 2015 (I am on the United Caribbean Lines mailing list)...
Have you heard anything more?
This would be a tremendous boost to RV traffic direct to Yucatan from the US if it ever gets going.
On the other hand, I believe that a Houston to Cartagena, Colombia container ship is operating from Houston, TX. Smaller shorter Class B's can go inside a container, but larger RV vehicles (up to a specific length) get loaded onto a RORO....
Also, on further checking, there in indeed a cargo/container route from Houston to Puerto Progresso....I don't know if they have RORO shipping (RV on a RORO), but I would speculate that they do. The minimum cost shipping a container from Houston to Progresso is in the $1470 USD range one way.
