Playing in Bora Bora
After a good night at Bloody Mary’s we decided to take
‘Blue Magic’ South to turquoise water and white sands. The route looked a little tricky – very narrow and
shallow between the coral heads but well marked so off we set ! As we motored the few hundred metres to the start of the
route, we picked up a convoy… Jackamy, Bionic, Peregrina, and Simanderal slipped in behind
us to follow us through ! Unfortunately we had one casualty, Bionic hit the coral
twice and decided to go back, they need 2.5 metres depth whereas We only need 2.2 metres, so that extra few centimetres made
all the difference. Jackamy hit the coral briefly but, in their defence, they
are already members of the reefers club ! The trip was much more exciting than we had anticipated but
the anchorage was certainly worth the stress. You can see
Jackamy here with Bionic following behind. Amy and derry areon the bow Watching for coral heads. |
