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.

Today's sms;
NOON 25 NOV GMT-10. 11S39 149W05. 350 NM FROM TAHITI, 1875 NM FROM HAWAII. N-N = 135 NM. GOOD PROGRESS SO FAR.

You can move the map around a little with the mouse!
Also here are two wind forecast pictures. Wind is predicted to be from the East, which is just what is wanted.
On the left is the 24 hour, above is the 12 hour forecast. The short lines (or wind barbs) show the direction and strength of the wind.
