Message from Milo Coldren
Plan to arrive in Noumea tomorrow morning at
11.00 am (local time).
We will visit the French Naval Base and HMNZS Canterbury.
Plan to explore town a little bit and look around.

Milo commented on how everyone has come together,
a great team effort.

Many thanks to the Nelson Amateur Radio Club for making it
possible for so many people to share in the excitement
of following our voyage and allowing those on shore and
on the yacht to keep in touch. Your support is greatly
appreciated.

Rick McNabb conveyed his congratulations to Milo and crew.

Proud parents and family members eagerly spoke to
their loved ones on board.

All those gathered at the radio broadcast shouted
out a collective "Congratulations!" Reciprocated
response from all on board.

"Au Revoir"
