We reached our first landfall at Capones light
in the early morning, after having sailed into a fishing net during the
night |
Enjoying a gentle sail at first light in flat seas near
the coast of Philippines. |

The Philippine flag welcoming us to Subic Bay.
The marina there is part hotel, but they arranged to get our cracked fuel
pipe fixed, and did everything to make our stay enjoyable. |
Sailor remained a cool cat, even after he was sick. Anyone
know if we can mix Stugeron into his food before rough passages ? |

Pauline enjoying the sail from the helms seat.
We had let the autopilot steer most of the way but kept an alert watch
on deck at all times dividing the night into three hour watches between
Pauline Hamish and Norman. |
We had a great sail across Verde Isl. channel to
Puerto Galera, despite the areas reputation for bad conditions. |
|
|
The anchorage at Puerto Galera is very sheltered
and picturesque, especially after a shower. |

On arrival in Boracay we were met by friends Will
and Susan from CWB Marina on a local sailing paraw. |
We saw some great sunsets from the long white sand beach
at Boracay. |
