Portal finishes the Pacific

[lilyluck]

Hey everyone,
Thought I would let you know that Portal, our CD 30 has made it happily across the Pacific, and is enjoying a long-term rest in Brisbane, Australia. We left California in march of this year, and have been slowly plodding our way across the Pacific. Despite experiencing quite unsettled weather (other boats have reported this year as odd too) and lots of challenges, Portal performed brilliantly and gave us very little trouble. I remain in love with this great strong little boat!
For now we are living on her in Brisbane and enjoying the settled life...

Perhaps we'll go for a day sail! What a wonderful idea...

Thanks again for all your wisdom and help along the way!

The journey you chose requires skill and courage in any boat. But accomplishing the feat in a 30' boat is exceptional.
