We are now back at Vuda Marina doing the final clean and pack up before we head home.

Current position if 17:40.824S 177:23.191E

 

Sally is  to be hauled out on the 2nd November and will then go into a pit for the cyclone season.

We then move into some hard top accommodation to finalise the pack up before heading home on the 11th.

 

The boat is in the process of being fully cleaned and vinegared in the hope to prevent and mould and mildew while we are away. 

All the clothes and bedding are being put into big and small vacuum bags to also keep them nice and dry.

We also have to take off all the canvas and are in the process of getting a boat cover made in the hope to provide some protection from the hot tropical sun.

 

There is definitely plenty to do however we have allowed ourselves plenty of time so all should be good

 

Have attached details of our season of cruising but not sure how this will go on the Blog but here goes.

In brief we did 3800NM, put 420hours on the main engine and used 965ltrs of diesel including the genset which didn’t get a lot of use due to the addition of solar panels and a working wind generator.
