The Construction of Kanilela. The Launch and the Early Trips. Saturday, June 29, 2013. Years ago, while delivering s/v. From the Marquesas Islands to Vancouver, we heard a loud bang as something crashed to the deck. We were both below at the time, but instantaneously were both up in the cockpit – no backstay! Dirk dropped the head sail and while I bagged it, he dropped the main and we flaked it. From the crash on deck to the sails down, the time could have been measured in seconds. The mast held! A flat ...

http://svislandbound.blogspot.com/2013/10/2013-10-12-one-more-passage-behind-us_7991.html
Wednesday, October 16, 2013. 2013, 10-12 One More Passage Behind Us. We arrived back to Savu Savu before dawn yesterday after our Fortuna run which was a “quick up and back” for visa purposes only. Bill and I have become fairly proficient with the whole passage thing but I would be lying if I left you with the feeling that overnight passages are now –or will ever be- a simple humdrum part of this life we have chosen. This trip we were affected by fishing, heat and then in the end weather. The floor of th...

The Construction of Kanilela. The Launch and the Early Trips. Monday, March 30, 2015. Back in La Cruz! Back in La Cruz! About half way to Tenacatita, Mags checked the engine room, as we often do when running on the engine. For the second time she came back with a report of water filling the bilge. As a side note, we don’t leave the bilge pump on auto so that we will always know when we have issues – if we check the engine room! First question is always “can the pumps keep up?
