Tuesday 13 July
We have been waiting here in Port Denerau in Fiji
for the SW wind to go back to the S and then SE. It is now backing and we will
set off tomorrow for New Caledonia although the swell will still be SW . Rather
than take the boat 40 miles to clear out we are paying customs a fee of £65 to
come here. I'm glad we are not on a tight budget. Specially as we have used the
time here to get a load of spares...a new gearbox dipstick for the engine was
£75. The food has been excellent;Indan,Chinese and Italian and we are going for
tapas tonight.

Not much to add really. Not many breakages (except
this computer whose keyboard keeps on sticking with thousands of
'9's)
