She was in such good shape because virtual neglect isn't as harsh as the real thing! I loved Pau's varnished quarterdeck caprail; and it's even more enjoyable that the brightwork is still perfect after all these years!

I'm gonna get more than a smile.... that goat curry was pretty good.... and we need to get Scott to crack & scrape another load of coconuts! Mike thank you for putting this up.

Fresh Breezes- Doug King- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - You're welcome, Doug. I was surprised to see how good some of these recipes look- originally I never considered ever actually trying any of them. Now that we've been cruising the lands of coconuts and taro they make more sense and we'll be trying many of them out when we get back to the boat in Fiji. Especially can't wait to try the croc recipes http://www.sailinglinks.com/oz_game_recipes.htm when we get to Oz in October! Cheers, Mike |
