Made it back after the tack free (well we put in a tack off Cape Brett actually) voyage . Stayed the night on Q dock at Marsden Cove and cleared by the friendly customs and MPI guys and we're safely

Back to outer Denerau. Checked the weather looking good for a Tues / Weds departure.

Motored out to namuto anchored for a surf/snorkel and then hauled it back to Denerau in 2hrs. Got equinox up to 8.4kts which felt nice and smooth sailing. Can't keep the Spanish mackerel off our rods!
