POS 17.40.882S 177.23.171E

We had a very blustery evening's sail around the southern end of the main island of Fiji - A sudden storm with lots of rain and 35 knot winds! A rather exciting end to our journey.

Today we checked in with customs in Port Denerau before arriving at the Vuda Point Marina. On the way out of Port Denarau we passed a very large private motor vessel who had run aground in the channel. It was a rather amusing site!

Our 3rd crew member leaves us tomorrow, and we then head to the Lasawa Islands for a week or so of cruising.
