Dolphins at Tethys bow.
Dolphins of all kinds would ride the bow wave, especially if we were sailing above 5 knots. This shot is of Giant Common Dolphins in the south Atlantic enroute from St. Helena to Fortaleza, Brazil. I shot it in 2000. Credit: Kaci Cronkhite

Tethys in Thailand, first circle
This photo was taken by the guys on Amaddon Light. They were circumnavigating when Nancy was making her first trip around the world. This shot is near Phuket, Thailand and shows the islands where I singlehanded Tethys for 4 days in 1997 from Phuket to Rebak Marina near Langkawi, Malaysia.

Tethys escorted into Seattle
We dressed ship with 28 country flags. That's Nancy Erley at the helm in 2001 while I prepared docklines and crew for the arrival at Bell Harbor.
