In Voyage of the Ika Roa, Heather Whelan relates the story of how she and then husband Tim built a boat and sailed it from England to New Zealand. The couple had no boat-building or sailing experience but they set to and built Ika Roa, a catamaran. Once afloat, their voyage took them to Spain and Portugal, then across the Atlantic. By the time they arrived in the Caribbean, they were seasoned sailors. While cruising the Pacific Heather became fascinated by Polynesian history and the islanders way of life. Friendships among the cruising community and with locals enriched the journey.
