Charlie Whipple is sailing for Hawaii on June 17th




Thats the news we have right now,the intended departure from New Zealand two days earlier has been put back because of weather,this is from Charlies blog:

Delayed departure 13-06-08
The weather is not conducive to departure on Sunday and Monday, so the departure date for Hawaii is Tuesday June 17, 2007. That will allow me to get everything almost completely done.



Rebecca Hayter, author of the book "Oceans Alone" and freelance writer, came down with Mike Hunter, Boating NZ Photography Editor, for a ride in Resolution and interviews for an article later on this year. Here are a couple of photos Mike took.


The man on the helm looks awfully rotund, but he'll slim down as the voyage progresses. :)



Just thought I was going to upload photos. Typepad's new system takes forever and I don't have enough battery energy to sit around and wait. That means you'll have to do without images. Sorry.
