In our first season (2005), we spent some time in the outer islands of Hawaii before  heading south to the South Pacific and on to New Zealand.  We sailed 5,070 miles.

    In our second season out (2006), we sailed from New Zealand to Fiji, Vanuatu, then on to Australia.  We sailed 3,735 miles.  We had planned on also visiting New Caledonia before heading to Australia for the storm season (southern hemisphere summer), but we had a change of plans.  We enjoyed Vanuatu enough that we wanted more time there, so we decided to spend the remainder of the season sailing north through Vanuatu, then check out from Luganville on Espiritu Santo and sail directly to Bundaberg, Australia..

    In 2007, we left the Pacific Ocean behind and sailed to Asia.  We sailed 4,989 nautical miles.  We sailed more than 2,000 miles within Australia, then we sailed from Darwin to Kupang, Indonesia with a rally.  We spent three months sailing within Indonesia.  We then sailed to Singapore, Malaysia, and then Thailand.

    In 2008, we sailed only 642 nautical miles.  We sailed the west coast of Thailand, then we sailed back to Malaysia then back to Thailand again.  In August, 2008, we hauled Passage out of the water where she stayed past the end of the year.

    Passage got back in the water in March, 2009.  We sailed back and forth between Langkawi, Malaysia and Phuket, Thailand a few times.  Then we made a trip out to India's Andaman Islands which is where we were at the end of the calendar year.  We sailed only 1,154 miles in 2009.

    We started 2010 in the Andaman Islands then returned to Phuket, Thailand.  We will spend most of the rest of 2010 between Langkawi, Malaysia and Phuket, Thailand (again), then we will head west/north late in the year.

    You can visually follow our course or read excerpts from our log.  We have also posted passage notes and pictures, and we have changed where/how these are posted.  Short sails - such as between islands - are described with the destination.  Longer sails (passages) are still described separately in 'passage notes and pictures'.  (If you notice a discrepancy between our log entries and the dates/times on our passage notes, it is because our log is in UTC, and our passage notes are in local time.)

    We can update this site only when we have internet access, and that is often unavailable in the areas we wander.  However, we will update it as often as we can.  Don't worry about us if we have not updated in a while.  It just means we are somewhere off the beaten path, and that is where we most enjoy ourselves.
