Éowyn is still moored in Caudal Basin, Port Louis, Mauritius in position 20:09.610S 057:29.806E
 
As Chris is only here for 10 days, we have tried to limit boat maintenance to an hour or so a day, but sometimes this has been difficult!
 
One by one, the remaining yachts arrived each with their own tale to tell. Last was Basia, only getting in yesterday, the 19th October to much applause, hugs and kisses. Three yachts had spinnaker wraps, Wolfgang on Destiny spent 9 hours at the top of the mast cutting his loose and John on Tzigane had to get into the water during the 4 hours it took them to free the spinnaker fouled in the propeller!
 
We have enjoyed the relaxation of staying in Le Suffren hotel and even managed a couple of days diving - not the best in the world, but we did get one deep wreck dive and on the shallow dives there were many nudibranch's (sea slugs), Anemone fish (Memo's!), moray eels and even a school of eagle rays.
