This blog is about life onboard SV Moana Roa, a 46 foot sailing catamaran, and the journey from the Caribbean back to Australia. Laurie and Sonia, Travis, Beau, and Kara leave home on Christmas Island (Australian Indian Ocean Territories) in December 2012 and set sail in January 2013.

Beau's Journal


Some of the fun things we have done and seen lately are:
1.     seeing the first iguana
2.     riding the standup paddleboard behind the dinghy
3.     swimming with turtles at Tobago Cays
In Tyrell Bay I saw the first iguana on a lime tree next to the Lazy Turtle Café.  When I saw it Kara and I were just swinging on a rope swing and I looked up and said “Iguana”.
At Sandy Island Vincent towed us behind the dinghy on the SUP and it was awesome.  One of the times when we were on a corner Kara was at the front and fell in with an “umph”, then I stated to go crazy and fell off too.
We all went swimming with turtles at the sanctuary.  We swam to one of the islands.  On the other side of the island were lots of turtles – we saw heaps.  We had a look at the island and we saw the biggest iguana we have seen.  It was one metre long with sharp spikes on its back.
