Bumpy night with between 20 - 27kn SE winds. First night is always the hardest with not much sleep for me. Wok managed a few hours with the help of Pihia Bombs.

[s]Back anchored out in front of the big city of Noumea after a brisk downwind sail in 15-20 kts of wind. Kids had a good camping expedition on Isle Bailly.

[status] Sailed from Tantabiddi to Coral Reef, along Ningaloo Reef. We departed at 2am and took 13 hours to travel 80 nautical miles. A sporty sail with winds peaking at 25 knots and boat speed at 9 knots. Swell was up to 3 metres, before dropping during the afternoon. Went for a quick snorkel here, clear water, lots of fish and some nice bommies.

[status] We're on our way to New Caledonia, after leaving Vuda Pt Marina this afternoon.

Welcome back to ocean sailing with quite strong winds between 25 to 30kn. Had a reef in the main and 2 reefs in the furler, but still a bit overpowered, so we put another reef in the main, and sailing for comfort with wind at about 108 degrees apparent.. and boat speed between 7 and 9kn. Still pretty wet with the odd wave coming over the boat at 90 degrees.
