[status] We sailed overnight - or motored mainly - and got to this new spot. It was about 120NM, and a very comfortable sail/motor. We had wind from all directions, but it was less than 12kts except for one squall where we saw 19kts. This is a very nice place and we are looking forward to some village time. The crocs are in another area, so we are told there are no issues here. However, around the corner is a lake, and a young girl last year was eaten...so we still need to be careful.
On another sad note, we learned yesterday that a sailing couple we met in Luganville had a tragedy three days ago. They were diving and the wife drowned. She was 35 years old. We don't have specifics on the death, and will update more once we get exact details. I am leaving the boat name out of this for now, until all details are confirmed. It was a very sad day to hear about this accident.
