[speed] Anchored off Atata Island, Tonga
[heading]
[status] We did a few boat jobs this morning. I bottled some beer and Steve pulled the aft head apart because it had sounded a bit funny. Turns out it was fine so he spent a frustrating morning for nothing - well, at least we now know it was ok. After a swim and doing some washing we headed out towards the reef pass and have anchored up off Atata island. There?s a resort on shore, so after a late lunch/early dinner at 4pm, we gingerly went ashore for a walk and look around. We had to go over a low Corel reef that was hard to see in the overcast conditions. Luckily the tide was coming in, so getting back was ok. We had a chat to the resort staff who were having a day off as there were no guests today. The friendly resort dog walked us back to the dingy, and we finished the day with a wine and a book in the cockpit. We?ll have an early night and hopefully be out the reef pass by about 5am.
