Half a World Away




Yesterday, Debbie and I sailed Morpheus over the Greenwich Meridian.   The Greenwich Meridian, or the Prime Meridian, is Longitude's answer to Latitude's "equator".  Check out the link above for more info.

But...the most interesting thing from our part is that this places us almost EXACTLY half way around the World from where Morpheus was built and first launched in Christchurch, NZ.

We've sailed enough miles to circle the globe about three times by now, but this is the first time that we've actually been half way based on Longitude.
