Sheena was 8 years old when we set sail from Cape Town in 1994.   We were apprehensive about taking her on the boat, but she was no problem, never sick, and was just excellent company, especially on the night watches.

For the following years we will share with you many pictures of our travels and of Sheena.

We have visited 50 countries and we are currently in Panama.

We now have a new Blog:  sail3oceans    2010 to the current date:
