Hi All                "13:53.S 142:47W"
 
Just a quick note to provide a position fix on our passage south west to the Tuamotus.
 
As I write, we've logged 312 miles in varying conditions, often fairly frisky and quick and have another 214 miles to go to Fakarava. This assumes that we make it in time for slack water at the pass into the lagoon, otherwise we'll divert to Kauehi which would save us about 3 hours.
 
Anyway, coral atolls, lagoons and passes will all be explained in a blog soon.
 
All well on board and looking forward to a rest in the flat water in the lagoon.
 
George, Michael and Simon
