World ARC Yacht "Asolare" Leg 4, Day 17 to Marquesas.

Tuesday 25^th March 2008

 

After yesterday’s roll call on SSB radio at 1200hrs local time, it was amazing to work out that there were five yachts within 20 miles of each other after 2700 miles of Pacific Ocean! We clearly like each other’s company! More interesting to note is that we have not seen any of them since we left The Galapagos Islands. At that time we had 356 miles only to go and now at 1230Hrs GMT we have just 210 miles. We should therefore be in Hiva Oa early tomorrow morning, local time, as expected. No “yacht” photo today but a tranquil evening shot of Pink Flamingos roosting for the night on one foot on the Isabella Island in the Galapagos. I certainly would like to return to the Galapagos Islands as they are truly an amazing and beautiful place to visit.
