After breakfast we set off for Port Stanley, thirty five nautical miles up the Malakula coast. Full main and stay sail gave us a 6kt speed. Unfortunatly it didn’t last long. By 10am the wind had dropped to 6kts, so the motor replaced the stay sail. Just as we finished lunch the wind came back. Motor off and stay sail out as the wind increased to 22kts. 
It wasn’t long before we reached Port Stanley and surfed the waves through the entrance. We checked out three places before dropping anchor off Surao island.Here we are sheltered from the swell but the low liing islands don’t give much shelter from the wind. Luckily the wind is supposed to die down over night.
We tried our luck at fishing but it’s B’s omelette for dinner. One day we’ll have fish. Gina made us all Moritos as a consolation prize.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
