Reefs in, buckled up, hold on and we are off! Bit lively overnight, but settled down today. Surfing down 2m swells, then climbing up the next. Making good progress.

10nm north of Sabine Shoal. Conditions a little worse than forecast, but making good progress.

Anchored outside Peterson Bay. Surveyed the channel into the bay, 2m @ 1/2 tide. Think we'll stay outside providing not too rolly.

Anchored outside Peterson Bay. Surveyed the channel to get in over the bommies, only 2m @ 1/2 tide, so I think we'll stay out unless it is too rolly.

Happy Birthday James. Anchored in Port Olry, this place is magic. Lobster and coconut crab for tea.

On our way to Port Olry, but called in to Champagne beach for the night, sun getting a bit low to negotiate bommies later (another hour or so to Port Olry). We'll head off again in the morning.

Anchored in Shark Bay, but the sharks are nowhere to be seen. Local name is Velit Bay, Beautiful bay. Great diving on northern corner. Local people just wonderful. Recommended.

Back at the Beachfront Resort. Provisioning, and off up the coast tomorrow for the week.
Not sure if we'll have phone coverage.

Day trip to Million Dollar point and Palikoulo Bay.
Dived, snorkelled and chilled.
Back to Luganville tomorrow for university upload and reprovisioning.
Heading up East coast next week.

Engine off, sails up. Peace again. On Island time now, getting closer.
