The Ocean Posse fleet is excited to announce our first-ever Tonga Gathering, taking place on July 4, 2026, in beautiful Vava'u, Tonga. This informal sailor-to-sailor gathering will bring together Ocean Posse members and cruising friends for an evening of camaraderie, sea stories, local hospitality, and fleet updates in one of the South Pacific's premier cruising destinations. We are especially pleased to welcome John Martin, renowned weather router and longtime South Pacific weather expert, who will share seasonal insights, routing strategies, and weather patterns for sailors exploring the islands of the South Pacific. John's practical knowledge and decades of forecasting experience have helped countless cruisers make safer and more informed passage decisions throughout the region. Whether you're already in Tonga, planning your next Pacific crossing, or simply looking to connect with fellow adventurers, this gathering promises valuable information, new friendships, and the spirit of exploration that defines Ocean Posse. We look forward to seeing the fleet in Vava'u as we celebrate the cruising lifestyle, share knowledge, and continue the adventure together.
