Fredrik Fransson on Yacht Maiken took remarkable photographs in August 2006 of sailing through a sea of pummice and the birth of a new volcanic island off the Lau Group in Fiji, located south of Late Island and adjacent to the Metis Shoal and Home Reef.
The location of the new island is 18°59.5S,174°.46.3W. You may look at a presentation of the remakable event
(You will need Powerpoint or a Powerpoint Viewer installed on your
machine). His photographs and narrative are available on his site at http://yacht-maiken.blogspot.com/2006/08/stone-sea-and-volcano.html
