That's me, with Teoti at the tiller, in the remote Central Pacific. In the background is the last of the famous John Williams missionary ships. In 1994, I tried to track down Teoti. "No," they said, "Teoti is dead." OBSERVATION: This is the so-called launch, which usually pulled a similar, unmotorised boat. In those days, they didn't have passages through the reefs. The launch would pull us to the edge of the reef, then unhook us, to catch the surf. Of course, we had to wait for high tide first. You may click on the photo to enlarge to VGA.
