For fourteen years we explored the world under sail, living on a sailboat with a cabin space not much larger, and with considerably less headroom, than a generous walk-in closet. As our route map above shows we set sail from New York with a clear purpose to travel, without detour, around the world, our prediction - a five year circumnavigation, although we really had no specific schedule in mind. But in 2009 Dream Time entered the South Pacific and crossed the equator for the first time, where we discovered not only the most beautiful and romantic islands in the world, but our independence. For a total of eight years we happily explored the islands of Oceania, meandering from one impossibly idyllic archipelago to the next. We lived off-the-grid, wind and sun provided us with power, our desalinator provided us with fresh water, and the ocean our protein. One remote uninhabited anchorage was home for a total of 228 days. It was our most magical time.
