01 July 1999 - Thursday

We are staying in Valdivia, 150 Nm North of Puerto Montt. We are having difficulties concerning our leaving the Chilean coast and setting out to the Pacific Ocean. If it takes longer there won't be any point in sailing to Polynesia. We would get there in the hurricane season and further sailing from Hawaii to San Francisco would take place during winter storms at the North Pacific.

We are setting out from Valdivia to Concepcion (200 Nm) and next to Valparaiso, where we'll decide about further trip. If the wind doesn't change we will sail along the coast to Panama Channel visiting Peru and Ecuador. In this case we'll get to Panama on December, 1st 1999 and we'll spend a New Year's Eve on the Caribbean Islands. I would also like to get back home a month earlier than planned (in August).

Capt. Jurek W±sowicz
