Time is approaching for our Pacific crossing in early May. Once underway we will be updating our blog several times a month from the boat. Currently we are in Seattle making final preperations with just over two months before departure, the excitment is growing.

Most ' Pacific Puddle Jumpers leave from Mexico or Panama and travel south toward French Polynesia stopping first in the Marquesas. Unlike the majority, we will be departing from the Strait of Juan de Fuca (Washington)heading SSW, then around latitude 40 more westerly toward Hawaii. After a few weeks in the Hawaiian Islands we will depart toward Palmyra, Samoa, Tonga, Fiji , then west. Our route will be just a few weeks before the Pacific Cup and the Transpac Races.
