Field Report #20

Judging
More fish
I think you can see 6 of the 13 sharks that were here for this photo
See kids, this is why you don't do drugs
Carl getting knee deep in clam
John cleaning....well a coconut, but this is when they were clamming
This is the crew of Sayonara. We met them in the Marquesas 
John in his element
It's not coming back. In Tonga we talked to a local and he
 magically turned our busted outboard into beers for the Rugby World Cup game.
that's how you sharpen a machete
The "Monterey Bug"
She's not pretty
Some Uto nuts
John and James put on another potluck, and they both made some local dishes for us.
Carl using our new found coconut skills
It will really be one our favorites for a long time to come
The dinghy at night was always fun
Remember all those flags hanging in the "yacht club"?
Well we weren't going to leave without leaving our mark
Here's the whole gang
Lee cooks up our parting gift from John
Nervous? You've gone all flushed
Raleigh doing his chores
That's korma in a coconut shell bowl
A bit of chafe on the gennaker which leslie fixed right up. To bad we rapped it around the rudder
There's a car on that thing
Moonrise was often just as spectacular as sunrise. But this photo is a little late for that.
