Not been any updates for a while, been very busy sorting our relocation from South Africa to Australia out.
Pizzazz eventually left Panama after waiting for wind and got on her way accross the Pacific. Pizzazz was approached at night with a bright light shining on the boat, it turned out to be the Columbian Coast Guard checking up. The Coast Guard never boarded, but they did take photos of Pizzazz and asked for identification and a few questions. Pizzazz crossed from Panama to Marquesis Islands in 36 days which we thought to be good going, as she did have a few days of slow progress. After a few days of rest, she progressed to Bora Bora and are now ready to sail on to New Caledonia before doing the final leg to Brisbane.
As far as our relocation goes, we have now moved into our house and I have started work in Australia. So will update again, hopefully before Pizzazz get to Brisbane. The Photo is Pizzazz approaching the Marquesis Islands
