The last few days we have been anchored off Malolo Lailai island (around the corner from Musket Cove). Walks and snorkeling in the sun. Last night the weather turned. The swell and wind came in the Bay and made it an uncomfortable night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This morning started with a bang! I ran out on deck to see what it was. Imagine was being bounced around in 1m waves and 25knt winds. The Snubber had snapped. (The Snubber is a rope that hooks onto the anchor chain and back to the boat. It stretches a little bit to soften the jarring of the chain as the boat rocks with the waves.) I had a spare hook and rope so I quickly, not neatly spliced the hook onto the new rope and connected it to the the anchor chain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After breakfast we ventured out to the back deck for our morning shower. It wasn’t easy washing and keeping balance while Imagine bounced around but we had fun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The rest of the day wasn’t as exciting as it was too rough to do anything.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
