Just a quick update before we leave French Polynesia … and a few pictures while we have internet here in Bora Bora. Had an amazing few weeks with Rose aboard; Moorea for a few days, then an overnight sail to Huahine where we spent a few nights in various anchorages.


From Huahine, just a short day sail across to Taha’a, where we spent time on the east and west coasts. From Taha’a another day sail across to Bora Bora where we’ve been for the last week. Dave and Eva ashore, Rafiki to ourselves. A perfect time in each others company, could not have asked for anything better. Rose just flew out; I dropped her at the airport in the dinghy. Will miss her…




Tomorrow we check out with the Gendarmerie – to let them know we’re leaving the country. We’ll fill up with diesel and food, and set sail for Niue in the next day or so. It’s 1000 miles away, so we’ll be at sea for at least a week. Westward ho!
