DAVID POLLITT SAILS - PALMERSTON, COOK ISLANDS July 2010

Almost 1000 miles directly east of Tahiti lies a fascinating island called Palmerston. Fascinating not only for its inherent beauty but for the intrigue that still lives on in the lives of the inhabitants. It all started with a British captain named William Marston and his three pacific island wives......I stopped to satiate my curiosity. This video was produced during a 3 year solo circumnavigation June 2009 to May 2012. I was sailing SHEARWATER a 47 ft catamaran built by John Conser. Fast, agile and strong. I became the first Symphony Conductor to sail solo around the world.
