Scott Chavez / Way Maker

Oahu, 18-23

Ran into him [Scott, 60?] in London, on Christmas island. He walked past the house where I am staying, looked into the yard, and did a double-take when he saw me. Yes, someone who looked sort of like him. An American.

He and his wife and son stopped for diesel, sailing from Tahiti to Honolulu. They only planned on staying long enough to fuel up. I can’t understand traveling by sea, over more than 2000 miles, and when you finally stop and set foot on solid ground, you don’t want to explore. Do you want to see who lives there or what they are doing.

He asked me where the bank was and it was easier to just put him on the back of my motorcycle and give him a ride. Just a couple minutes away by motorcycle or it would’ve been another walk for him.

Friendly enough, told me their main sail had ripped. Have only owned the boat since November, had never done any deep water sailing, but a lot of sailing up in the Pacific Northwest.
