Ocean Pearl, Amel Super Maramu 2000 arrives at the marina
MacGregor 65 Braveheart, just arrived. Bob a solo sailor from the state of Washington.
We saw this boat on a reef in the Yasawas last year. Story is they had work done on her here and then skipped off without paying when it was f'cast to be 45knots. Anchor dragged and they ended up on the bricks. Boat was taken back to Vuda Pt for repairs - they ended up paying a lot more than if they'd just paid in the first place !
Jomo's poor old boat. The foremast was wooden, got rotten and fell down. He's still waiting for another one. In the meantime his house in the US ws broken into and all his stuff stolen. He's back in the US trying to sort that out
Ted's Tootsi. He sailed this boat here from Cyprus !
Ocean Pearl in her berth. She hails from Mongonui in New Zealand's north
65 feet long and only 12 ft wide ! Like a needle
Vuda Bob's Serenity...after plank replacements and caulking she still leaks. A new motor that runs sweetly but a shaft alignment problem..I think its the coupling that's off centre, but Bob is so p..s.d off with it he's not listening
Ocean Pearl was for sale but Danny took her off the market. I spent some time with him yesterday, he's thinking about it
Dr Darren's boat Mischief, he went Hawaii in April after the incident and hasn't been back since.

Tuaki back in the water. This is Tony, who's wife Carolyn died earlier this year. He's doing Ok. Some friends are arriving in a few weeks to go for a sail, then he's hauling out and leaving her here for the cyclone season
