About Me
- Alison Watt
- I am an artist and writer. I usually work from my home and studio on Protection Island (where I also teach painting). This year (Sept. 08-summer 09) I'm trying to keep the artist's life afloat as my husband and I take time out to sail in the Pacific.

Hello Alison and Kim
This is Paulene's sister Beverley, now back in NZ and showing your blog off to my husband Don.
He is still anxious to see a photo of the yacht!
Thinks it is pretty good, what he can already see of it and is rather envious.
Hope you are enjoying your cruise and good sailing!
Regards
Beverley and Don Willcocks,
New Zealand.
