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:
Enjoyed one of our last swim stops today as the trade is begining to build. Just before our stop a whale shark was spotted and we went over for a look. This huge leviathan was at least 35 feet by 6 feet and had us all in awe for some time.

Started motor sailing today with this light wind as it makes for more stable conditions. Fliying fish everywhere, chatted with Pitcairn again last night and all aboard are in good spirits.
