We are getting to that frustrating distance away from the next port..Are we there yet! 120 miles to Nuie, and 130nm away from being tucked up. Time is critical. If we are not there before1530 tomorrow, we are not allowed ashore until after customs have cleared us at 0900hrs Saturday. There is an Aust v All Blacks rugby march on the TV along with copius cold beer! If we don't make it the commadore of the Niue Yacht Club will organise a hamper of cold beer and thawed steak for us and will hand it across to our dinghy, but we still can't come ashore.He will also tape the game for us. Can't wait to meet these nice people.
