Hi, We've just subscribed to his list and thought it might be of interest to tell the members a little about ourselves. Some of you may already know us, as for many years we were active on the live-aboard list and the TWL. In 1999, we bought AKAMA, our Krogen Whaleback, on which we lived in Singapore until our retirement. We slipped the lines and began cruising SE Asia. A few years ago we left SEA and wandered along a largely un-trodden route through the islands south of the Philippines, eventually ending up in New Zealand. Details of our journey can be found on our web site www.nunas.com. We hope to leave NZ in April or May, bound for Tonga, Fiji, Vanuatu (second visit), New Caledonia (also 2nd visit), ending up in Australia around next October. Maurice & Louise-Ann
