Hello from day 2! Not too far for us to go now - should make it into Tahiti tomorrow morning. We are aiming for a pass in the south west part of the island (the Tahiti iti part). We will stay there for a couple of days before heading to the capital Papeete (in the North West).

All is well on board. We havent really got into the swing of passage life for this short one. Not much sleep for either of us last night and we have been having real issues with our auto pilot so we have been hand steering a lot. The audio books are coming in usefull again.
