[status] Anchored at Port Resolution, Tanna Island, Vanuatu. Arrived here after uneventful overnight passsage from Port Vila. Sharing anchorage with Commons Crossing (Helen & Peter) and a small ketch, Four Winds. Aprodite left as we came in. The anchorage is well protected with good holding in 5-6 meters. Local ni-Vanuatus are very friendly and eager to trade for food stuffs, fishing hooks and line. The head man of the nearest village, Stanley, organizes trips to the volcano and charges $11,700 Vatus (about USD$117) to take us to the top. All well on board.
