Waiting

27 July 2010 | Mamanuka Islands, Fiji
Mike
The ICA rally just left for Vanuatu. We're waiting. There's a big high coming off Ozzie, creating a squash zone on its north side. Where we are. All indications are: It's going to blow for several days. Ah well, we're not in a hurry; especially with 30kts + and big seas, even if they are aft the beam.

The pic is from a happy time in the Tuamotus with some of the original Puddle Jump boat crews. More later,

Vessel Name: Argonaut
Vessel Make/Model: Cal-40
Hailing Port: Seattle
Crew: Mike & Liz
About:
Mike: I guess I've been sailing for more than 40 years; always with the idea of cruising to far away ports firmly embeded in the back of my mind. Reality, in the form of raising a family and making a living kept me out of the game until one day... [...]
Extra: It has been an amazing journey. I could have stayed home, or gone no farther than Mexico but I knew I'd never see this any other way. If there were only re-runs... The lesson is: If you wait until you're ready, you'll never go. So get off your butt and do it - whatever IT is.
