You'll want a book called Metservice Yacht Pack, compiled by Bob
McDavitt, which has all you ever wanted to know about South Pacific
weather. (MetService is Kiwi for NOAA). I just did a search on
"metservice yacht pack" and came up with a number of vendors (not
Amazon). Pick your favorite.

Our copy (from 1995 -- we did our circumnav 1995-98) has 17 pages on
"Where to get weather forecasts" and 96 pages of other good stuff.
Essential.

This winter I'll be headed through the Canal and off to French Polynesia
and then to New Zealand for hurricane season. I'm not sure what sources
I'll have for radio weather faxes. Who transmits what and on what
frequencies/times/etc? Are their web sites that I can preview what I can
see what they're transmitting?

Thanks, Geoff
