Friday we sailed to Haano the most northern Haapai island and found a nice sheltered bay. There was several reefs to snorkle around.
Saturday morning we sailed back to Pangai to pick up Fabien and Nolwenn, French couple who join us for a few weeks. We then sailed back to Haano and snorkeled some more.
At 3 am on Sunday we set off for Vavau. It was a nervous time winding our way through the Reef in the dark. Once we were out it was a nice sail despite our Autopilot “Jess” (Just an Electronic Steering System) not working. Fabien and Norlwenn made a good replacement. It took a couple of hours from when we saw land to working our way through the islands to a sheltered anchorage in Port Maurelle.
Within minutes of anchoring in the bay with six other boats, we were all in the water. We had a relaxing afternoon, reading, napping and sunning ourselves on deck.
We must have needed a shower or something because by this morning all except one boat had left the bay.
Sounds like you are back on track again, where to now?
Awesome sounding adventure. Rebecca/belle
