We arrived yesterday morning after a 16 hour overnight passage.  Horrible confused sea with a chop on top of the swell that made it very uncomfortable. And the wind was pretty much directly from behind if we held the course we wanted to be on so it was a long night.  We made good speeds though so were happy with that.

 

Lots of yachts we know are here so it is good to catch up with people and there is a music festival on so we will go an see what that is all about this afternoon.

 

Provisioning, laundry, gas and life’s essentials to be dealt with while we think about when we want to move on to the Tuomotus and/or visit a few more bays here first.
