Once again Vega was invited to participate in the Singapore Yacht Show, a major event for boating in South East Asia. For 4 days we ran ourselves ragged showing Vega and explaining our mission. We sold books, coffee, and T-shirts to help raise funds for this years deliveries. It was a great chance to see old friends and meet new ones.
Historic Vessel Vega played host to over 100 budding photographers who took part in a photo competition. We had a lot of laughs for sure.
Protecting the pride and dignity of communities we assist has long been a worry of ours. This year we found a logical way around the donor syndrome. Where people feel they must beg outsiders to get meaningful assistance. For many years the Maritime Police in East Timor helped us to offload and provided a staging area for our deliveries. This year we joined together to make deliveries to remote communities from which some of those officers originated. It was a wonderful experience.

This year we were featured in the 2017 Singapore Yacht Show and Vega was a super hit.
