This morning we were on deck at sunrise. After breakfast I went ashore and picked up Marion (who was going to join us for the trip from Vanuatu). Once everyone was onboard we hauled anchor and headed across the atoll, looking for somewhere with clean water, for a swim. There was no wind and the water didnt have a ripple on it. On the way I tried fishing. It only took 5 minutes and I had a Barracuda on the line. We stopped at lunch\u00a0time (Barracuda) at Yanuya island across from Castaway island, where Tom Hanks and Wilson was filmed.\u00a0
We swam and snorkelled for an hour in the beautiful blue water. We could see the anchor sitting on the bottom 18m below. Unfortunately the swell was coming in the bay so after lunch we headed north. As we set off the wind started and over the next few hours it increased to 25kts. This gave us the chance to sail. By 5pm we were anchored and having drinks and nibblies on the back deck in the Bay on Kuata island. Tomorrow we will explore the island.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
