After 3 days of preparation for the ocean
(food,diesel,cleaning,yachtservice etc)we cleared out of Fiji in Lautoka.We did
have some problems due to all crewchanges that has taken place onboard Tarita
since our arrival last year.It´s worth mentioning for other cruisers that
clearing on/off crew in Muscet Cove is not accepted by customs/immigration in
Lautoka(at least not with our immigration officer).We passed through Maololo
passage at 12.00 "Anatom" the southernmost island in the Vanuatugroup.With the
Pointers and the Southern cross to port,Venus ahead,and March behind the
nightsky is magic.We have 16-18Kts out of the southeast and with full sails we
keep a speed of around 7 kts.See you in 2
days.Goodnight!
