Cheshire Cat has brought us halfway around the world. Amazing!

We have managed to escape from New Zealand at last!
We've enjoyed many experiences in glorious destinations, struggled against weather and adversity at times, but our trusty little yacht Cheshire Cat has seen us through everything without complaint.
Our adventures first started in Ontario, Canada in 2002.,when we sailed up the St Lawrence Seaway and out into the unknown ocean for the very first time ever, heading for Halifax, Nova Scotia.
We stormed southwards to Bermuda, and spent the next two years exploring the beautiful beaches and islands of the Caribbean.
After some time in Venezuela we made the BIG decision to go west and transited the Panama Canal. Cheshire Cat took us south to visit Ecuador.
The next big passage took us clear across the Pacific Ocean - and we have discovered the beautiful islands of New Zealand.
