Liveaboard the Thorfinn in Micronesia

In July 2000, I took my 3d trip on the Thorfinn on an excursion in Micronesia. The diving was good, but the real memory is of stopping at remote islands. For many of these people, the Thorfinn's visits are the only contact with the outside world. It's so incredible to see that their innocent life can still exist in our world today. My buddy for this trip was Patrice, and it was on this trip where she met Rob! Here's a short video This one is about 3 minutes,

It was also memorable for engine problems that left us adrift for almost 2 days! See my notes about the whole trip here.

Here is the rest of the video - it's well worth it if you can spend the time.



Here is a map from the brochure for the Thorfinn.

And a description from another year.
