Finally - IKI, Japan, Sailing Alone

I returned to my boat in Fukuoka after a few weeks break to sail her to Iki Jima one of the eight islands in Japanese Mythology. Finally, after two previous attempts and locations failed, it looked like things are all set to film the HISTORY CHANNEL pilot for a new series called Dare to Dream.

I have chores to do and repairs before I am embark on the 36 nautical mile passage.
Thanks to Yap for helping me out of tight berth and to Yuki for finishing the install of the new seawater exchange elbow.
