What an adventure! Every thing went well, but for a few glitches...generally light winds. Sometimes we thought we would go crazy but we did not. We encountered only 2 cargo ships and 1 sail boat, so yes we felt very lonely. At some point we were over 1000 miles away from any patch of land, God this ocean is big!
We completed our pacific crossing! 25 days, 13 hours, 3188 nautical miles, 5.2 knots average, 204 watches, max speed 9.9 knots, 6 fishes, 29.3 degree C max water temp, deepest point 4720 meters, 90 gallons/335L fresh water...

Crossing the equator in navy tradition is a big deal. There are lots of rules to respect. Here is what we made of it. It gives you an idea of how out of our mind we were in the middle of this huge ocean.
