Thanks for all the Prayers

Our trip across the Pacific was smooth and uneventful, just the way I like it. No accidents, no injuries and just enough mechanical challenges to keep the McGuyver's  in the crew occupied. The Caribbean Reach is a big heavy boat so when the winds became light, we had to motor sail.  I am so thankful for Jesse and Mike Harris who completely rebuilt the 671 Detroit Diesel. They kept the engine purring. If we did not have the engine, I would not be writing this now.  We would still be bobbing around in the middle of the Pacific.

We will be leaving Hilo soon and preparing for a grand arrival in Kona on September 21.
Thank you for all of the prayers. I know it made all the difference in having a safe smooth passage.
