Plans for the 2018 season
|
Winter has come to Sweden and tomorrow it is "Lucia" Outside it is winter with snow and subzero temperatures. A good time to plan for next years sailing in the warm Pacific waters.
Dawnbreaker is resting peacefully in Redwood city in sunny California. I will return to the boat in mid March and hope to be ready for sailing mid April.
The first leg will take us south to the Los Angeles / San Diego area and on to Ensenada Mexico. This leg is about 500 NM.
In the beginning of May hopefully we will set off on the long leg
to Hawaii:
I think I have a full crew already for this leg. After a couple of weeks exploring the Hawaiian Islands we will head out into the unknown.
The first stop will be Tabuaeran Island and on to Christmas Island. These belong to the Line Islands (1000NM south of Hawaii)
During the following months i want to visit as many as possible of the hundreds of island in the states of:
In the end of the year and another 4000 NM we should be in
Palau: When we get there it is time to decide plan the continuing trip to Indonesia and onwards.
2018 will be an exiting year crossing the Pacific with lots of visits to remote islands. I look forward to your bookings for this adventure.
For now I wish you all:
Lars.
