Comments: What's up..The last I read months ago you found the place to berth in Hawaii. Are you moving on? I see the dates are year behind.....Really enjoyed the passage. I have a Catalina 25 and dream of the day when I move up and out to sea. I sailed around England ( took 2 months of tran rides and weekends back home to Ipswich) in the 70's. would like to sail from boston to england again when I retire at 55. Keep up the great site....

Congratulations on your baby-to-be. I s'pose I should be writing this as an email, not guestbook comment. I'll let you find this. best wishes aloha Christopher

We had a great adventure and are now back on land with tons of memories we will take to our graves. I loved reading your episodes. I especially enjoyed your description of cooking under way and the wonder of the smell of land after 29 days at sea. All the best to you, and keep sailing as long as it's fun!

Along with me, they were line-handlers on Pangaea through the Panama Canal last year. So, Bert and Yvan (and everybody else, who I may know), send me a msg.

Comments: Great web site ! Inspiring ! Enjoyed reading about your Tahiti/TOM bond troubles...It seems the French are a bit self serving and overly bureaucratic...Living in Finland back in 86/87 I had to get a visa for France after Pasqua said all foreigners needed a visa(there were fly in fly out terrorist incidents.) I thought I could get it in 15 min by going to the Embassy in person...but they kept it 24 hours so instead of being in Besencon on DEC 31 I was on a German ferry between Denmark and Germany...and then from Swiss the gendarmes did not even want to look at my $10 visa or passport...At least I did not have to post a bond...And it was really interesting living in Japan when I saw a made for tv animated movie for children about some lovable sea creature(not a whale because they want to eat those) that the evil French Navy was trying to catch so they could nuke an atol or something like that...It was pure propaganda-the way the foreigners were portryed( and a bit too strong for children I think) but it did amuse me that it was the French being portrayed this way and in light of Mururoa and Rainbow Warrior maybe rightly so... Anyway I ramble too much...Enjoy Hawaii and say hello to Madame Pelle if you see her...I was on the Big Island in 96 and really enjoyed Volcanoes Park (hiked 13 miles on xmas day and my feet never noticed !) I must be walking on air! 8-) Aloha Greg

Comments: Dear Pangaea, Erika and Achim! Well, at last I found my way to your homepage. But I was disappointed that I didn't find any pictures at all?! I don't mean to be rude, when I say that you don't have to send me those massproduced updates, I can just find them on the homepage, but of course you're still VERY welcome to write me. Do you keep in touch with Yvan and Bert? I don't. It keeps me going to think about that I'm going back to the South next year. I got a job on "my" factory in Graasten again this summer, so I'm going to save up loads of money. Maybe we'll meet again then! Yours, Kristina

I met you up at Big Bear skiing last year about this time (I was the woman from Minneapolis who had just moved out to the "Inland Empire", my husband Mark is a programmer for ESRI in Redlands)...Lost your address till I found it on my messy desk today!(I swear it's been about a year since I've cleaned it) I'm just catching up on the past year's adventures...Congrats on the "tadpole"!!!(When Mark and I were pregnant with our son Kieran, we called him "fishy".) Being a parent is a trip, a roller coaster ride...you two will do great as parents. So what if it isn't the typical suburban lifestyle (that is certainly not all it's cracked up to be!)...your child will have a rich life experience of different cultures and people that you two will be able to give, something most people couldn't even fathom. I wish you the best. Take care, Suz (msdostal@aol.com)

We are now sailing a 28' Buccanner with a home-made cutter rig. The boat is a bit small, even for two, but it's fun to have to really sail.

Comments: Erika: Congratulations on your new baby. Heck, congratulations on your life. I've just spent the last month or so wading through the last few years of your life. Thanks very much for sharing your experiences. They have been very inspiring. In the interest of fair play, here's a little bit about me. I'm a 22 year old college student studying Programming and Analysis. I have developed an interest in the cruising lifestyle after reading of your adventures, and other stories. Of course, there are a few hitches to work out, such as not having a boat, lack of cash, and the fact that I don't know how to sail. None the less, the idea has been growing on me for quite a while now. I plan to investigate the harbour in my new city of Toronto this summer, and see if I can scrape together the money to take some sailing lessons. Hopefully the experience will tell me whether this is for me. In any event, and the one thing I have a lot of is time. P.S. Any time you want to write about your "ketch," "mizzen," or "Jenny" just go right ahead - it's not boring at all.

Comments: Just reviewed your "conversation" with the authorities and press....

Reminds me of a quote, probably from Robert A. Heinlein that goes something like: "When you argue with an ass, bystanders can't tell the difference."

I edited a little newsletter that often got into controversial subjects. [won a couple of national awards in the process.] Found it was best never to say "you" in a letter. In other words, never attack (or refer to) the person, but concentrate on the subject. To that end, when I felt strongly about a subject, I'd wait a couple of days before I formed a reply, then file THAT away and review it from the recipient's viewpoint a couple of days after that, searching for the weak points in my logic, and trimming off extraneous comments [they're what's going to be attacked]. I can do a long reply in an hour -- I type at over 120 wpm -- but it takes me a week to create a short, effective and persuasive comment.

As I read, my fingers ached to edit your replies but once sent, the words can't be retracted....

Good luck in your fight. Hopefully, you'll get someone in power to be on your side. Remember how well that worked in the Galapegos (sp?)?

Comments: nice home page - we own a steel boat as well and are in the process of rebuilding. The boat had a flush deck and we have had to add a cabin and complete interior - no small job. We also had a fire aboard, but not as traumatic as yours - our was set by the welder when we were on the hard trying to do some changes on the transom. Set us back a bit. Anyway, we are getting closer to leaving - probably for the s. pacific again this will be our third trip - but the first on a steel boat. Last trip we were gone from 1983 to 1990 - spent the whole time in the Pacific. Good luck to you and have fun cruising. Bob, Trudy and Michael LIndsay. Yacht" Tini Apa". P.S.

Comments: And the happiest of new years to you! I can't remember how I found you since I've been a stowaway Forever....I remember seeing Pangi on the Indian River in Jensen Beach (where Mom lives). And how silly of me not to have written sooner. I so enjoy your journals and look forward to writing some true life tales of my own in the not so far off future. But for now, I'm living and working in the Bahamas. It's not the worst place to be waiting! I'm hoping Pirate Dave & I will be off to islands south by mid-year. In the meantime, thanks for sharing, and congratulations on the newest addition! All the best, Jennifer

She's OK with our annual 3-week cruises, but isn't quite ready for thinking about the longer cruises...

Comments: Erika, Its Saturday morning, 21st November and I've spent the last hour or so reading your updates, feeding my dreams. I and my partner Lil are new sailors. Five years ago I was on a charter with my then room-mate and her family. It ignited the nascent dream and after quitting my job to return to school and after having finished that schooling, having found some work and some income again I talked Lil into taking some lessons on our little patch of water (the Ottawa River)here. Her initial accommodation of my fervent desires has been replaced by enthusiasm. A boat, some kind of pocket cruiser appropriate to our location and income, is in the (near?) future. And in the farther future, a blue water cruiser, I hope and I pray, to take us out of sight of land, encircled by a liquid horizon. Anyway, this is just to say how much I am enjoying your ongoing narrative. How, as another long, and, it is foretold, bitterly cold, Canadian winter sets in, it keeps the dream alive and warm. A request? You're a web designer. And Achim (sp?) is a programmer, right? Me too, although just starting out (its the product of a mid-thirties) career change). The dream would have nice grounding in fiscal reality if I could flog my skills while cruising. Is it hard for you/him to dig up work? How central is it to your ability to keep on cruising? What kind of work do you and he do? This reader would certainly appreciate hearing about these practicalities in an update someday. So long, Keith

Comments: Hello Pangaea, Have been catching up with you via your old logs, and printing some out to share with my wife, Judy. Being cat people we were sorry to read about Lulu. We have wondered about bringing our kitties on board when we begin long term cruising since the loss would be so difficult if one should go overboard. But then we are not voyagers and can come home after a weekend cruise to our pets. On long passages I'm sure we would miss not having them. If you have doubts about the risk to Manuia of bring her aboard, certainly you saved her from a very unpleasent fate on Tahuata. What else could you do? Talk to you later,

Comments: Hi both of you, I like very much the tone of your updates - especially the one of the 11-nov about the drunkard whose bark is worse than his bite - remind me of similar a experience in St-Lucia (Deux-Pitons) when sailing there for a few weeks with my girl-friend. A part of the fact that there - sadly - it was more about crack than about alcohol I'm afraid. Good to tell the bad as well as the good in such a voyage. I am preparing to build myself a boat as I cannot find what I want for the budget I want. Regarding variable draft (lift/swing-keel) how would you value it? Where you some time hampered by your draft to access some places you would have liked to access but could not because there was only one meter of water or so? I personally would love a boat with low draft, both for fun (going where others do not go) and for safety (accessing the bottom of the hurricane hole for example). What do you think? Also, you have a steel boat: what about the maintenance of steel? I would be afraid of that being a hevy task? How is it actually? OK, enough for the while, cheers and - keep updating!!! - hope your ear is alrright now. Bye Dominique

Comments: You guys are great. Every day, lately, I try to stop in on your site to look through the previous entries. I'm just another guy with big dreams of doing what you are doing, but for now I have to stay content to plug away at my engineering job to earn enough money to break away sometime and pursue this dream. And I get to learn from your experiences, while sitting in the comfort of my office. Since I have a young family, my sailing experiences are limited to taking out my Hobie Cat once or twice a year. I like to sail in the SF Bay, Monterey Bay, and lakes. I hope you continue to have a safe voyage. It is not the equipment, weather, animals etc. I'm worried about, it's the people. But you've come this far and are still around, so I hope I'm worried for nothing. I'm really sorry about your cat. That was a heartbreaking segment. I had a dog that was truly man's best friend. She went everywhere I went, and actually showed me the way home many times when I was lost. And from time to time I blame myself for her death at the early age of 8, but at least she died while with her family.

Yep, just gonna let loose the lines and go. But not TOO far - I still wanna get email, which brings us back to the Ham info. Currently still on dry land (unfortunately,) preparing, which may include getting a Technician's license and some sort of inexpensive Marine Ham/SSB radio setup, (if there is such a thing.) Had been considering taking a 50 lb. Belgian Malinois with me. Your tale about Lulu has just convinced me that I simply couldn't stand to lose her that way. Of course, this means losing her another way, giving her up, but I suppose that life's better for her than a brief one at sea. Thanks for sharing your sorrow - it helped me make my decision. Just wish it didn't make leaving so hard!!! Fair winds! John

I am impressed with what you guys are doing, I don't think I would have the guts to do it though but now I can follow along and pretend that I am along with you. I am enjoying your website and have read a few of your letters and enjoying everyone. I have not checked all of your website and you may have a picture of your ham gear there, but if not would you one on the website and let me know or let me know where to find a picture on your site. I would be interested in your ham radio setup there and how you have things put together as far as, hf radio, automatic antenna tuner, antenna, etc. Please check out my home page if you can, not sure how you would do that, but if you can check it out. My wife Donna and I (Ray), work at Oregon Institute of Technology, Klamath Falls, Oregon. I am the plumber there and my wife works for the Geo Heat Center, we have geothermal water that completely heats the College. My age it 56, and may retire early next year if things work out, Donna age 48, will keep working for 7 more years to help pay a few things off and for insurance purposes. We just moved into a brand new tripple wide manufactured home, and you can see pictures of it and our view of the Klamath River below on our Web Site.

Comments: I like your web page! Times, they are a changin'. My wife and I cruised the Marquesas in 1989. Back in the "olden days" we had satnav and VHF. We spent almost 3 months in the Marquesas and Tuamotos, and another 4 months in the leeward Islands. Be sure to get to Mopelia (that's about 150 miles west of Bora Bora) I love what you are doing with technology. You are the "ultimate" telecommuter. We spent 7 years cruising, including a few years working at Turtle Island in the Yasawa group of Fiji. We're now living in a house in Vancouver with 2 kids, and the cruising seems so far away. I'll come back to your site every so often for a great cruising fix. I am going to Germany on business next week, but will have my laptop with me. If you have any questions about the areas you are coming to, please don't hesitate to email. Maybe we could look through our logbook and ask you to say hi to some of the beautiful people we met.

I have always wanted to do extended cruising but "the boss" is not so keen on the ocean so maybe it will never happen. It's interesting to "live the dream" second hand. I'm sorry about the loss of your cat. There is nothing to say except that you loved her and cared for her, there are too many animals in the world that never know this.

Comments: Hi both of you, Just came from the HF email HAM pages, we talked about it on a french e-mail list. What you do looks GREAT!!! I will be starting to build a 12-14m monohull of wood-epoxy (absolutely maintenance-free and easy to repair) as an amateur next year. But I admit that I hesitate: for the same budget I could find a 14m 15yr-old steel boat like yours... How do you handle your boat? I must be a heavy displacement so with big sails, isn't it too difficult to manoeuver? My boat must be manoeuverable by my 'wife' Sylvie (I hate that word, we are not married), 1.60m and lightweight, so I do not see her handling 150m2 of sail area needed to power 15-20 tons of boat.... This is why I consider building my own boat, a lighter, faster, lift-keel type with deck saloon (the latter good with children). And what about the maintenance of your steel boat? What are your experiences? Both of you are doing quite the same I was dreaming of and wondered if it was feasible. I am an electronics engineer , andI tried to figured I could make a living out of it on board. For starting we plan "only" a 1-2 year journey (caribbean and back), because Sylvie is afraid she cannot find her teaching job back if we stay away longer, and wonders what it will be with our little daughter on board (now 8 months old, but 6yrs when lauching the boat). Well, 'projects, projects...', but these dreams are getting serious and real. A professional word to Achim: how do you do with the HW on board: do you develop HW projects on board, or do you use an existing platform to develop code on it? For me as a HW guy there is the problem of sourcing electronic parts on board, they are difficult to get through e-mail (By the way, did you try this new internet laundry service: you fax them your trousers, and they send them back clean the same way. Well they still have a bug, because my office fax machine is now seriously jammed with denim - maybe it works better through e-mail ;-) I suppose it is easier to work with immaterial "goods", but did you see people during your journey that could have needed work from an electronics engineer? (Well I can ascertain from erika's writings you met less people of that kind than people who urgently needed a Doctor :-( I traveled enough with Sylvie in so-called 3rd world countries to have noted that myself...) Anyway I plan to have an electronics repair shop on board, I sailed some times in the caribbean and failed electronics is as common as it is frustrating among navigators. Lastly, did you have any problems with work regulations? In any immigration rules it is a standard to make illegal any work done as a tourist, with some times (in the former british caribbean isles especially) some frightening consequences as far as I remember - at least on the paper. Well I will stop now wasting your precious airtime and batteries with my prose, Hope that you had a good galapagos-marquesas crossing with not too little or too much wind. Cheers!!! And keep on going! Dominique private address dbovey@worldcom.ch

Comments: Dear Erika and Achim! At last I got access to the net. Unfortunately I don't have the time to read of all your doing right now, that'll have to be later. I went to Denmark on the 9th of July from Panama City together with Karin, who decided to go home, too, as she didn't have the time. Then I went to the Faroes on the 17th, as my cousin was getting married on the 18th. Last week I was in Norway, sailing with my father and his boat, S/Y Kristina. Now I'm going to fix my future home, a room in Tórshavn. I'm going to study Faroese. With love, Kristina.

Interesting to see how different folks react to the same situation. I'm not an organized tour person myself having done most of my traveling independently. But the boat seemed to be the most controlling part of the situation for me- a Taurus. But I felt at ease with the group as a whole. Don't like to be overpowered by personal;ities and our grou7p jelled well. I did enjoy my 4 days at shore. did need to relax. see you got the kitten. Somehow i knew you would. and who can resist a kitten. they take over our lives. My cat was well and reaslly happy to see me when I came home. Has demanded alot of attention and is content again.

The turtles were on another small island just off Zanzibar but I cannot remember the name of the island, there were three of them one was Prison Island the other was Grave Island but can't remember the third. I don't know if you've ever sailed the Indian Ocean but if you do please go to Dar es Salaam, the house we lived in was directly across the street from the yacht club of which I was a member. I have many found memories of Dar and wouldn't mind being there now. I enjoy reading your writings, just wish I could have the same lifestyle. Regards Pat.

Comments: Hi guys, Well, you complained I never signed this book - so here I come and do it (again). Although this means diddlysquat to me, apparently it is important to you. To you Erika: I do enjoy your writing which I peruse here and there. It gives me some good laughs when I need a break from the hectic business routine. I'm sure you're not missing that part of life and I sometimes wish I were where you are, doing what you do. But then reality sets in real quick again: been there, done that. I will never be that young and innocent again where I can afford to just screw off years of my life having fun - so back to work I go. Capitalism is great with a hefty price to be paid by those who reap its benefits. To Achim: By now the new WinNet product should be about ready for beta test, or are you running a little behind schedule? Just kidding, of course. Nothing is happening on this front yet.

The wilderness rose up to it, And sprawled around, no longer wild. The jar was round upon the ground And tall and of a port in air. It took dominion every where. The jar was gray and bare. It did not give of bird or bush, Like nothing else in Tennessee. The "Dominion Wide Mouth" Jar said to be (by Roy Harvey Pearce) the "source" for the "Anecdote of the Jar."

Comments: It was so much fun to see a photo of the blouse that you traded. Great story, and interesting thoughts on how we view each other. Actually, me, I quite loved your paranoia. I also enjoyed scrolling throught the guest book and picking up messages from mutual friends. Will continue to avidly follow your adverntures. LOVE, V----------
