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.

Entering False Creek
The accompanying photos are of our entry into False Creek on Day 14, 21 August.
The first photo is a ship that cut very close across our bow at Boundary Passage as we approached Saturna Island.
The others show our approach into False Creek, under the Burrard then Granville bridges.
Because of the crowded anchorage and fading light we anchored with smaller space than we would have liked but the next morning the boat downwind from us moved out and we were able to move Pachuca 30 meters downwind and put out 20 meters of chain.
The final photo shows Pachuca happily at anchor.
