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.

V Berth and Church

I placed the V-berth lids on tarps on the jetty access walkway and did the two-day job of sanding and two coats of paint.  Fortunately Robert rarely visits his boat on the other side of the walkway.

This is a photo of the sail lockers without their lids.

The starboard side is dominated by the big MPS spinnaker.  That shiny bright blue bag on top is one that we had made especially for the water maker.  I use it to store electrical cables.  Aft in that locker is the 50 a/h AGM battery for the anchor windlass.

The port side holds the two spare genoas at the bottom and the asymmetric spinnaker, storm jib, staysail, storm trysail, and storm jib higher up for easier reach.

The small section next to the port sail locker contains a Danforth anchor with rode, the important Volvo spares in the plastic container, some floats, and various other items.

A few days ago I took these photos of the restoration of a church on "5 de Febrero" street.
