High Seas and Low Latitudes ....... s/v Sundancer: Does it get any better than food in Mexico?

http://highseasandlowlatitudes.blogspot.com/2015/04/does-it-get-any-better-than-food-in.html

High Seas and Low Latitudes . s/v Sundancer. Wednesday, April 8, 2015. Does it get any better than food in Mexico? Time sure does fly when you aren't drifting aimlessly offshore. It's been 2 weeks since we "arrived" here in Huatulco, and our joy at being here has not diminished one bit since we first kissed the dock. We are very grateful for:. Chips and Salsa - what is wrong with the rest of Central and South America? April 14, 2015 at 11:47 AM. April 19, 2015 at 8:21 AM. Too right, Laura, but unfortunat...

High Seas and Low Latitudes ....... s/v Sundancer: February 2015

http://highseasandlowlatitudes.blogspot.com/2015_02_01_archive.html

High Seas and Low Latitudes . s/v Sundancer. Thursday, February 19, 2015. And 4 and 5. So my daily updates arent. Daily, I mean. Sometimes, the effort required to actually write an update is just too much work, and then there is the whole needing to actually getting a ssb connection.I have so many worries. The squalls have settled down too - we were getting one or two a day, but yesterday for the first time, we just had a few clouds, but no rain. Weve seen no wildlife for days! Conditions: 1-2 foot swell.

High Seas and Low Latitudes ....... s/v Sundancer: October 2014

http://highseasandlowlatitudes.blogspot.com/2014_10_01_archive.html

High Seas and Low Latitudes . s/v Sundancer. Monday, October 13, 2014. A Week in the Life. So we are waiting.waiting for our French Polynesia long-stay visa to come back from Papeete. In the meantime, we wait some more and find projects to tear up the boat so that we can live in disorganization. It's so much fun. I'm not sure if it'll make it onto the good ship Sundancer. I'd have to leave a bag of flour behind. In the meantime, we wait. Monday, October 6, 2014. One item of note was the mentality of the ...

High Seas and Low Latitudes ....... s/v Sundancer: //WL2K Galapagos to Easter Island - Day 1 recap

http://highseasandlowlatitudes.blogspot.com/2015/02/wl2k-galapagos-to-easter-island-day-1.html

High Seas and Low Latitudes . s/v Sundancer. Sunday, February 15, 2015. WL2K Galapagos to Easter Island - Day 1 recap. We left the Galapagos Islands with the speed of their namesakes - a lumbering tortoise-like 3 knots, but is there a better way to ease into a long, interminably long passage? If we get an average of 100nm per day, we should be making the passage in 20 days. Unfortunately. The first 24 hours has come and gone, and we are settling into the life. A brief synopsis:. Hour 3 - Wind died. Upon ...

High Seas and Low Latitudes ....... s/v Sundancer: See Spot Run, See Heather Come Unhinged

http://highseasandlowlatitudes.blogspot.com/2015/02/see-spot-run-see-heather-come-unhinged.html

High Seas and Low Latitudes . s/v Sundancer. Saturday, February 7, 2015. See Spot Run, See Heather Come Unhinged. When you travel, you realize that not everyone thinks the same way that you do (frankly, I hardly feel like anyone thinks the way that I do, but that’s for another introspective posting). There are regional, municipal and certainly country-wide differences. We all know that the Germans like things to be “just so”. We are here in Latin America. I must be a slow learner, or adapter, but I CANNO...

High Seas and Low Latitudes ....... s/v Sundancer: March 2015

http://highseasandlowlatitudes.blogspot.com/2015_03_01_archive.html

High Seas and Low Latitudes . s/v Sundancer. Tuesday, March 24, 2015. The end of the adventure. Not a problem, we thought. We're a sailboat, and while we may not get there as fast as we could, as long as the wind held, we'd be fine. AS LONG AS THE WIND HOLDS! Our Saviours, Dave and SaM on Islena. Inch by inch we made it into Marina Chahue, Huatulco. Can you tell we are happy? And so here we are. We are staying on land for awhile. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Time Since We Left. Where are we now? Simple te...

High Seas and Low Latitudes ....... s/v Sundancer: November 2014

http://highseasandlowlatitudes.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html

High Seas and Low Latitudes . s/v Sundancer. Monday, November 17, 2014. We are rapidly crossing off items on our to-do list. We hope to have them all finished by the time we leave for the Galapagos, but if you've ever lived on a boat, it seems that every time one thing gets completed, there are a few more that have been added. And we were away. Now it is a bit technical, but if you are relatively savvy, you can decipher what you need and adapt. I wasn't too interested in some of the more homemade asp...

High Seas and Low Latitudes ....... s/v Sundancer: January 2015

http://highseasandlowlatitudes.blogspot.com/2015_01_01_archive.html

High Seas and Low Latitudes . s/v Sundancer. Tuesday, January 27, 2015. Mantas, and turtles, and penguins.oh, my! We've been very busy these last few days. With our buddy Ron on Mar de Luz, we continue to check off the "must-dos" here on Isabela. We have had to break into the piggy bank tho, something we aren't really happy about due to the bank situation here. My snorkeling checklist for the Galapagos is now complete! Saturday, January 24, 2015. The obligatory cemetery shot, although a bit sad. Yesterda...

High Seas and Low Latitudes ....... s/v Sundancer: June 2014

http://highseasandlowlatitudes.blogspot.com/2014_06_01_archive.html

High Seas and Low Latitudes . s/v Sundancer. Sunday, June 1, 2014. If we're smoking, we're roasting. On a sailboat (or any boat for that matter) plying the world’s oceans, the #1 rule is self-sufficiency. Carrying spares, duplicates of everything important, is just what we do. My captain always says, as I pick up yet another replacement part in a marine store, that we can’t carry a spare for every system on board, but of course we need to choose which are the MOST important extra parts to carry. I also k...
