Default Smart decision by Zac

I see Zac had to turn back from his departure from Port Moresby because the
engine failed to start. Smart move. Better to get it fixed by the people
who should have just fixed it than sail into an unknown port with it niot
working. Also smart not start a long leg to a place where the engine could
be vital to a safe landfall. Sure, you should be able to manage without an
engine but why throw an ace out of your deck if you don't need to?

Do you have his blog URL? I seem to have misplaced it. Smart move,
definitely. It's better to wish you were sailing than wish you weren't.

Looks like he's made good progress with the Pacific puddle jump.
