Popular Port For Yachtsmen

Every year about this time, PlM’s yachting columns begin to get that bursting-at-the-seams feeling as cruising yachts meander from one side of the Pacific to the other, free from the menace of hurricanes.

Papeete, Tahiti, as always, is among the most popular ports of call at this season, and when a PIM representative strolled along the waterfront there on August 1 he found no less than 11 sleek yachts tied up.

From east to west, they were: Minerva (San Francisco), May Us, Wanderer (San Francisco), Viator (San Francisco), Jessica (Honolulu), Diavolo (Long Beach, California), Meko (Papeete), Diogenes (Costa Rica), Te Reva, Seawyffe (Seattle) and Sea Call (San Diego). • For other yachting news, see page 105.
