There is nothing more enticing, disenchanting, and enslaving than the life at sea.

[status] Bula Fiji! 4 miles from Navula pass. After a pretty rough night with little sleep the last couple hours have been a pleasure as the seas flattened and wind has moderated as we near the island.
As if not wanting to give herself up too easily, Fiji threw us rough seas and contrary current on final approach. Fortunately the strong wind blast reaching was also giving Jolifou plenty of speed through the water, surfing at 9 plus.
Very happy to finally be here after our longest trip to date, just under 11 days.
