Pacific Grace 2003 Leg 2

The second leg of the 2003 offshore:

Puerto Vallarta, Mexico to Puntarenas, Costa Rica
November 16 to January 16, 2004

The Sail and Life Training Society is a veteran of four previous deep sea adventures. This will be the first visit of the Pacific Grace to many of the countries, ports and remote communities which are familiar to the Graceīs sister training ship, the Pacific Swift. The voyage will be comprised of four distinct legs.Trainees may apply for one or more legs with no restriction as to numbers of legs except for availability at the time of application. Each leg will consist of several intermediate stops between ports of arrival or departure; however, these stops are subject to prevailing weather and the political situation and may be increased or eliminated at the discretion of the shipīs master.

Ship's Log:
Sorry for the delay,computer problems for the last couple of days. We had an uneventful trip down to Zihuatanejo. A bit of sailing but mostly motoring in calms. Arrival in Z. was on Sat. at about 1100hrs after a quick stop in Ixtapa for an anchorage during the previous evening. All are well and ejoying the beautiful town of Z.

For those of you at home who remember the vessel Vltava, she is here running dinner cruises with tourists. Our plan is to depart from Z. Dec.1 for the 110 mile trip to Acapulco. Weather is very hot and a bit muggy.
