Finally Out Here Doing It!

Hello all,

I just wanted to say thanks for all the useful posts on the Cruisers Forum. It was one of the resources we used to research gear purchases and learn how to perform repairs.

We left Florida in March on a planned 2-year circumnavigation aboard a 1990 Privilige 39 catamaran and just made it to Tahiti today.

Here's a link to our website. I've also posted a question in a Indian Ocean section, but it doesn't look like a very frequented board.

Thanks again,
Dallas

Great site! Looks like you are behind the rest of the pack, don't worry keep up the slow pace. The first part is the best and you still have the Cooks and Niue ahead of you if you choose. Don't rush to Tonga!
