Cruising

New Stuff at Niue

By Richard | August 24, 2009 | South Pacific |

Here’s of broader view of the landing at Niue. That’s Greetings anchored offshore. When a storm came through, Greg stayed with the boat while Teri and Sierra stayed ashore. That was something different.

If your life has become a little hum-drum and you’re yearning for something different from the ‘same-old, same-old’, maybe it’s time to get a boat and take off. For when you cruise, you can’t help but doing all sorts of new stuff.

Sure, you can get a good deal on fish at Costco, like you probably do every week. But wouldn’t it be fresher – and a lot more interesting – if you caught it yourself?

To illustrate our point, the accompanying photos illustrate a few of the different activities enjoyed at tiny Niue by Greg and Teri Weeger of the Huntington Beach-based Beneteau 473 Greetings, and Teri’s now 13-year old daughter Sierra. And mind you, Niue, which is just 100 square miles, was only one of the stops on Greg and Teri’s circumnavigation.

By the way, we’ll have much more on the Weegers’ circumnavigation in the next issue of Latitude 38, which will hit the streets on September 1.
