Another day, another bay! Tomorrow, another island: Ouvea.
Just anchored in Doking Bay after a week in Wè. Just a little rolly here but not bad. The water is beautiful!
We had a nice overnight passage and are now tied up in the Wè Marina on Lifou. Life is good!
Leaving for Lifou in a couple of hours, probably. We'll see what the wind does.
We're in Port Boise and maybe going in to the resort for lunch is this squall passes by then. It's clouding up... The front's a coming!
Yep, another ten miles today. This is getting to be a kind of nice habit. We're anchored in a really nice little bay (Pilote). It's been a beautiful day here.
We're in! We anchored in the harbor last night about midnight. Not a bad passage, all in all, and we made it in seven and a half days.
Wind is getting lighter as we head into the STR. We're expecting to motor for a couple of days. Mr. GPS says we have 401.2 miles to go to the pass.
We're moving along nicely, if not in the exact direction we'd like to travel. We're keeping the wind on the beam and counting on it to back so we can head to Noumea.
This has been a pretty nice boat ride so far. We're motor sailing into light WNW winds and small swells from AAD (Almost All Directions). It's getting warmer!
Having a pretty nice sail today and making very good time. I think it's already warmer (or is that just what we want to believe?!).
Leaving Opua bound for Noumea (probably!). We'll miss you NZ.
Not far from Opua (and pizza) now. We'll slow down a bit too try to make the non slack tide while pulling into a berth.
