2010 Life at Sea

We are in Home Bay, Pentecost,Vanuatu. Arrived yesterday afternoon. This morning we loaded in the dingy at 9am, picked up Jim and Katie (ASYLUM) and went to shore to see the land diving. We were informed they were not doing it here in this village so we had to walk with our guide, Luke to […]

I could hardly wait to get back to the beautiful clear water and all the little fish in the Maskelyne Islands. Such a neat little place tucked between the islands with open water to the south. There is a shallow reef between where we are anchored and the breaking surf. Last year we spent 6

weather looks better flat calm this morning NO WIND….HOT!!! Jim wants to fish so ai think we are going to head out about noonish fish for a while..don’t know what we’ll do with fish if we catch any..guess we’ll go to the first island we see. Plans I think, are to head to the Maskelyns

Today Saturday June 19 at 10 something am we made our way out of Port Vila. Jim really anxious to get some fishing time in was chomping at the bit. We are looking at a short hop to Malakula, hopefully with fish in hand. we will spend a few days in the Maskelyne area, looking

gonna be stittin here a few more days. Seems like we get here and never leave. Haven’t even done anymore snorkeling, now it’s too rough to get to the point by dink. Wish all of you were here, miss all of you SOOOOO!!!!! I have looked at my underwater pix so many times I know

sitting at the Waterfront cafe waiting for the weather to get nasty. Jim pulled up the weather and Thursday looks good. Will have BLUE weather for several days, so maybe we can get somewhere besides the mooring ball here in Vila. Will keep you posted. Martha

Here we sit, weather supposed to get nasty in the next day or so. Think we’ll just sit on this mooring. Maybe we’ll rent a car and tour Efate Island. There is somewhat of a road all the way around. We don’t really want to sit in Havanna Harbor and wait out the weather, so

Still here! Hope to get going this afternoon or tomorrow. Headed to the Makelyns for a day or so and try to get to Pentecost before the land diving ends on the 26 June. Think we have the generator doing it’s thing and working on a few more little issues. Will pick up some eggs

things not going well on SB at the moment, generator the issue. Jim and Katie on ASYLUM have had little pesky gremlins on their boat and I think they jumped to ours. Jim has spent 3 days changing part and still having problems. NO air cond, low on electric and it is REALLY HOT!!! We

We are as HOT as we have ever been, no wind and we are on the far side of the Port Vila Bay with the island between us and the open ocean. Jim thinks he may have the generator fixed. If so I think we’ll just sit under the vents for a few hours. My
