Hi Folks,
 
Wind abating slowly and coming down to 20 knots ... we will need less than that to get the twin heads rigged for our down wind passage to Tonga ..
 We are planning on scaling the heights of Bora Bora tmrw morning , so it will be walking boots and gloves for the scramble to the top ..
Rob and Ruth are out on there round the island bike ride today so there should be more photos of Bora"nick" Bora tmrw ..
It is reported from the other side of the island that on the motos surrounding Bora Bora the dogs are a bit vicious so beech Barbie's are out of the window unless you fancy a few nips around the bum !
 
Nothing much else apart from grey tank cleaning and bilge whipping routines to carry out ..
 
News from Palmerston Atoll , all the skippers of the six boats are getting out of there and going to Tonga as the wind has dropped to 25 knots , its safer at sea than in the washing tub !
