In August, 2006, S/V Toketie set out from Victoria, British Columbia and sailed South to Mexico, on to French Polynesia, Niue and Tonga following the well beaten path known as the 'coconut run' to New Zealand. In 2009 we sailed N to Fiji then on to New Caledonia en route to Australia! Toketie is now back home in British Columbia after a long passage via the N Pacific Ocean.

progress on refit
Its been a really good week for Toketie. Deck and cabintop have been sandblasted on all the rusty spots and the topcoat is being peeled away like a layer of onion! We have a long way to go but so far the weather has been cooperative.
