[s]We weighed anchor in Ponamlas Bay at 0340 this morning and set sail for the 74 nm across to Port Vila on the Island of Efate. The wind was astern of us but sadly always a little too strong to fly the Parasailor. We completed the passage under white sails, tying up to mooring no. 6 at 1540. It was great to chat to old cruising friends on Pacific Highway, Bruce and Laura, as they departed Port Vila. It was even better to celebrate with Kate and Paul, on Iolea with a bottle of Champagne, recognising that we'd sailed in tandem all the way from New Zealand. Cheers! All very well aboard.[END]
If you want to build a ship, don't drum up people to collect wood and don't assign them tasks and work, but rather teach them to long for the endless immensity of the sea.
