Wonderful video….it took four knots off my top speed. It takes more than money to live like that.

In ’92 my family anchored right off that wharf. The kids were 5 and 8, and within seconds of hauling the dinghy up the beach, they were leaping from the jetty just as they continue to do. Our 5 days in Penrhyn were a joy and the kids were tearful to leave. Like every other island in our 5-year trip, we have longed to go back. Moments ago I sent this video to those two kids, now 37 and 40, and I’m sure they will share my longing to return. It’s a long sail from San Francisco to Penrhyn, but worth every second of time spent with family at sea. There is nothing like it.
Steve Stone says:
Fun/amazing story, Beau. Thanks for letting us all in on that. I wonder if your kids remember that?
Ed Altonji says:

I wonder how many times Tom thought to turn around and head back to Penrhyn? Pretty idyllic.
