NAO Log Book: Episode 1

Departure

From South-East of Sailor Cove East to South of Corsica.


A SecondLife sailing adventure by Nahoga and Aoshi Watanabe.

The NAO Log Book is relating the Nahoga and Aoshi Watanabe SecondLife Open Seas (Continents) Tour.
We decided to try to add usefulness to pleasure by doing Freight Runs between GTFO hubs on the route when it's possible, that give reasons to stop at some points and look-at without only be visually attracted. So we start from our island at Kokomo Beach south-eastern corner of Sailors Cove East and we are heading north to the Cape Kirk Hub in Second Norway, first GTFO Hub on our route.
