Reader Submission: The South Pacific

By Tim Henry | August 2, 2017 | French Polynesia |

The following comes to us from Lynn Stokes as part of our Cover Contest and Reader Submission Series. While we love sailing in the Bay, we like to remind ourselves that the horizon beyond the Gate merits our attention. 

"Here we are at the water/ public dock on Huahine, French Polynesia," wrote Lynn Stokes.

Thanks for the photos, Lynn. If you have a picture or story you’d like to see in print, please send it here.

PS: You don’t have to be in the South Pacific, racing or wearing a captain’s hat and blue blazer to be considered. In fact, we would love to see what all the weekend sailors are up to out there. Anyone have some shots of exotic Angel Island? 

"The Hotel Kia Ora," in Rangiroa, French Polynesia. It doesn’t get much more picture-postcard-perfect than this.
