VOYAGES Photo Album
We have had many tacks (and jibes) with Shanachie over the years... and so, here we used to include a small online photo album that chronicles a few of them. However, it seems after 11 years, our online photo album has disappeared! Thus, you will just have to take our word for it: sailing the South Pacific was just plain awesome! (We'll restore the photo album again one of these days... but for now, you'll just have to let your imagination run wild).
