Viani bay is a beautiful protected anchorage. Snorkeling and diving on the Rainbow reef is not to be missed!!!!.

Fawn harbour is a very protected anchorage with several Caucasian settlers, nice locals and hot springs. Good sandy anchorage and plenty of reef.

[status]Day 6 begins! All in very good spirits. After motoring for 80hrs we're finally sailing. Pleased how well fuel is lasting. Still have 3 days in reserve. MPS, main and mizzen. Nice surprise to see Meg had posted our menu for the day. Started with scrambled eggs. Anna is now French plaiting her hair. Got some music happening.[END]

[status] No wind but clear weather. 147 mile day. Major issue is fuel capacity. As of 0730NZST have enough for 2.4 days motoring. Will probably have to turn off motor late this afternoon and simply wait for wind to fill in. I don't want to leave myself short for remainder of trip to Fiji after Minerva.
