A Hitchhiker's Guide to the Oceans: Part 2 of 4




Hitchhiker's Guide to the Oceans: A 46,000 Kilometre Sailing Voyage Around the World.

PART 2 of 4: From the Galapagos to the Marquesas of French Polynesia - a 32-day passage. Onwards to Vanuatu while en route to Australia.

From January 2008 to April 2009, Clive Webber hitchhiked from sailboat to sailboat in an attempt to sail around the world. Starting in Panama and sailing across the Pacific, Indian and Atlantic Oceans, he finished his circumnavigation by returning to Panama after 16 months. It was a journey of 25,000 nautical miles, 10 boats, 1000 hours of hand steering, 200 dark nights at sea, 19 countries and countless memories.

This is PART 2 of his story, as told in his home port of Kingston, Ontario, Canada on November 19, 2009 to an audience of supporters at the 2009 Able Sail Fundraiser. This event which raised over $2000 for Able Sail Kingston, a local charity which provides instruction and sailing opportunities to disabled sailors.
