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.

Yesterday there was a gale ! Brenda has written; "Robert and Arnold have withstood their first gale with the help of the para-anchor."

For a description of a para-anchor,
