Well,
the team are getting a good soaking. Mother nature (the ultimate boss) has decided to turn on the water and wind.
Here is today's sms (Saturday 26th July 2008);
NOON 26 JULY EST. 36S27 155E05. MANY SQUALLS. DOING 6.5 KN WITH 2nd REEF & SMALL JIB. NOON-NOON = 129 NM.
If you want, please checkout their current location at this website, i.e. as the green marker

I thought it would be a good idea to see what it would be like (on a small boat)
in a squall, so put on your lifejacket and head to this website; http://tinyurl.com/6futce
The above video is not from Pachuca and requires a good internet connection.
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.

Gidday Brenda, Bob and Arnold, This is Bob and Jean at Melanie's - catching up to date with your trip to-date. Looks exciting. Bet we're more comfortable than you are on this Sunday afternoon! This has been a most interesting exploration of the website. We must prevail on Melanie's computer again soon. Meanwhile, happy sailing.
