[status] We have travelled over 1,000 nm since leaving Auckland 16 days ago.
The water colour at Minerva Reef is an amazing blue. We plan to depart for Lifuka, Ha'apai, Tonga late Sunday afternoon, light winds are forecast so we could be motoring most of the way. The 350nm passage will take about 2.5 days, arriving Lifuka Wednesday morning.[END]
The sea, once it casts its spell, holds one in its net of wonder forever.
