After a very calm 5 hour crossing, with the water temp going to 27.2C we
arrived to sunny conditions to a remarkable corner of the world Sawa-i-Lau
in the Yasawas.
Surrounded with a very steep hill and sandy bays that had unusually craved
by the sea rock formations. There was a climb up and down to a pool about 20
x30m that was trapped inside of the steep hill that was feed from an
underground supply from the sea.

[weather] 10 knots E. 1014.0mb, rising. 10% cloud cover. Seas slight with swell 1M.
[status] NNW wind early yesterday evening glassed off so that we motor sailed through to 3am. An Easterly with a touch of South in it has filled the sails again and speed varies between 5 & 6 knots. Lovely clear skies overhead. All well on board. ps Hooked a marlin 10 miles off the Malolo Barrier reef but after jumping about close to the boat and then peeling out 500M it spat the lure - phew!
