Taking a Break – Uninhabited Chesterfield Reef

October 19, 2020/ Marcie

Between Vanuatu and Australia in the middle of the Coral Sea lies the French-owned Chesterfield Reef. It’s totally uninhabited… by humans anyway. We sailed from depths of hundreds and thousands of feet through a small opening in the coral reef and anchored in peacefully in shallow water. Visiting the tiny coral islets was amazing. Birds, birds and more birds… unafraid and unbothered by our presence. Nesting turtles, sharks, dolphins, seashells galore… it was a magical place. Come enjoy it with us… come share the magic.

Hi there and welcome to Just A Little Further!

We are David and Marcie Lynn and we've lived aboard our Liberty 458 cutter-rigged sailboat since 2000.

What began as an urge to travel slowly and economically at our own pace ended up an adventure of a lifetime.

Well, here we are ... nearly 90,000 miles under the keel, 5 continents, 5 Great Southern Capes, 36 countries and almost two decades later, still taking one passage at a time and going just a little further.
