[s] A magic carpet ride of a passage â the wind steadily dropped through the night but the sea also calmed to 0.5m waves so our beam reach gave us a very steady 15 degrees of heel and a comfortable motion. Taveuni, with its usual covering of cloud, and Qamea are in sight. Weâll probably have to motor through the passage between the islands but thatâll recharge the batteries nicely. We plan to anchor near the airport at Matai to get ashore for pizza, beer and some shopping![END]
There is nothing more enticing, disenchanting, and enslaving than the life at sea.
