The Princess TaiPing is well past the Northern Marianas and is approaching Taiwan. You should be able to see her position at http://share.findmespot.com/shared/faces/viewspots.jsp?&glId=0m9SPnQlDcOmdcU57Nqs0z1BChkPIixQB (Select "Hybrid" for an interesting presentation)
Rob Nikzad has written an excellent account of his experience on the TaiPing and I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to get insights on what it is like to sail on a replica of a Ming Dynasty war ship with two days' notice. Rob's account is at http://nkzd.org/
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.
