Been in Noumea, New Caledonia for past few days after a mixed bag of a 6 day passage from Southport. 1st half saw very frequent squalls, with winds into the 40's from all directions. Then decent trade wind sailing for last couple of days. Very frustrating though, with 1.5-3.0 knot current against us nearly the whole way! Happy to be here, Another baguette with roquefort??? Oui, merci !!!
