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.

Ship's Log:
We have finally left our friends in Galapagos. Our stay has been extended due to us waiting for a part to arrive from California. Our watermaker needed some TLC before heading off into never never land. All are very excited to be underway and are looking forward to this long passage at sea.

We have been in touch with Pitcairn with our ham radio and all seem to be keen for our visit. Once again our stay in the Galapagos has been a memorable one in many ways. As during our last visits the wildlife was wonderful to see but the people that we met and the way they welcomed and served us will be in our memory forever. All those ashore are hoping for our return.
