Another Working Day Has Ended

The following are photos taken from our passage from Manila Bay to the Island of Boracay during a race with the same name. It took us 24 hours and some odd minutes nonstop. The fastest this author has been on this here sailboat called "Karakoa".

Caught a little sleep and woke up to this... It was almost six in the morning, Maestre de Campo East of Mondoro and the sunrise. We've been sailing for 16hrs straight. It was here too that we saw dolphins going south. Sorry, didn't get a shot.

Helming Karakoa is Steve Benjamin our fearless skipper who lead us all the way with an extra day to the most beatifull beach in the world.

Approaching the final mark on a beat, PNP water police escorts us like we're some kind of VIP rockstars. On the rail with me are Nick Craddock and Jelbin Ramos.
