to head Non-Stop for Brisbane Australia

I expect to take about four weeks to pass the Marquesas, then three more weeks to pass Fiji, and a final three weeks to reach Sydney. Rafiki is a 36 foot steel hulled cutter rigged sloop, designed and built in New Zealand, equipped for single handed sailing, fitted out with radar, a great navigation package, a water-maker, propane stove and water heater, about as comfortable as you can get in a boat. I stocked up with lots of food, and will probably catch a fish or two on the way.

I have short wave radio, I have a ham radio license and send and receive text emails via my callsign VK3LAA at winlink dot org.
