Some photo's of our 4 weeks at sea crossing the 3200nm from the Galapagos to the Tuamotu Islands.
 Mahi Mahi - we caught 4 this day which fed us for a few weeks.
 Some speccy sunsets
 and sunrises
 Couldn't see the pot at the end of this rainbow even though it was very close.
 Moon with 2 planets beneath it just on dawn. Movement of the boat gave it the Zzz shape. Being on watch at sunrise has it's benefits.
 The crest of a white cap shows the aqua colour of the water
 Where the water breaks or the boat hits the waves, air bubbles turn the water turquoise in patches.
 Squid & flying fish land on the deck during the night, particularly when the seas were a bit lumpy and the wind was blowing. We would occasionally find them after a few days, led by the smell!  We found this little guy too late - he was sun dried
 Our indoor aquarium with flying fish - the leaky escape hatch in the floor of the saloon.
 Surfing down a wave. Some days the waves were up to 3m+ high, other days were very calm seas.
 John, Miss Kitty & Nigel. Our evening game of sequence. The boys changed to red tokens shortly after this in an attempt to reverse their losing streak. It has worked to some extent. |
