Sail to the Marqueses

Sunset at the equator

Finally got a chance to get out on the ocean and make some serious miles since the last trip on Claudia IV.  This time the passage was from Oahu to Hiva Oa in the Marqueses.  We sailed 2,950nm in 25 days with a crew of four on a 37' Lagoon catamaran.  The office job was kind enough to grant me the time off.   Already looking forward to the next opportunity as I write this from my office chair.  As per the swashbuckler tradition, videos are below.  If any loyal swashbuckler fans are out there, thank you for checking the blog.  I'm terrible at keeping up with correspondence, but am prepared to give it a go if you so decide to drop line.
