Hi all,
SunShine(11c) and I left Tampa Bay in May of 2010.
We went direct to the Panama Canal and on through the South Pacific on the "Coconut Milk Run" to American Samoa. There I spent 6 &1/2 months largely because of numerous failures aboard and the hurricane season. The most costly being a fried engine.
In April we got underway again heading for the Marshall Islands as a stop over on the way to the Philippines. After a quick look at Guam I arrived in Cebu about the begining of July 2011.
Since then I have sailed up to Subic Bay and over to Hong Kong then back to Subic and Cebu. It is now Jan 2013 and I am in Subic again having sailed up from Cebu to spend the holidays here.
In a couple of days we will head back to Cebu and then possibly down to Borneo and Brueni.
All in all I have had a good trip and tested my boat in many ways. From calms to 50 knot gales the boat has performed quite well.

Take care,
Fred
