Wing and wing all the way

Article Abstract:

Fiji and Tonga are in the Southern Hemisphere trade wind belt and the sailors describe their experiences during their destination journey to Neiafu, in the Vava'u islands of Tonga, which is 400 miles east of Fiji. Due to lack of weather planning, alternative destinations on the way to Vava'u were plotted, as there were a number of places that could be visited at different tacking angles.

Fast ride to Spanish Wells

Article Abstract:

A sailor and four others set sail on Boston Light, a 53-foot Ladd-designed cutter, to Spanish Wells, an appealing group of islands north of Eleuthera. He suggests that a positive aspect of cruising is that one has to adapt to the reality of the cruising ground to experience the eternal truths of passagemaking.
