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.

First Day at Port Quarter Berth
The photo shows the results of the first 5 hours of removal of the contact glue. I split the two Volvo engine harnesses at the joins and suspended them and other wiring off overhead bolts using string. I expect to finish the painting preparation tomorrow, Sunday, and to begin painting on Monday morning using the remains in last summer's 4 liter can of Dupont Imron paint. I finished working at 12.30 PM when the temperature had passed 99 F.
