This blog began in late 2006 with the planning and preparation for a circumnavigation of the world in my 39-foot sail boat Pachuca. It then covered a successful 5-year circumnavigation that ended in April 2013. The blog now covers life with Pachuca back home in Australia.

Except for Falklands-Cape Town-Fremantle legs where I assume 120 nm per day due to favourable current and winds
