We spend a quiet week in Bora Bora, The weather is a bit ho hum so we do a few boat jobs and have a wonderful sail in the Bora Bora lagoon.
We then check out of French Polynesia and start the 14 day sail to the Kingdom of Tonga. It’s a full-on ride, with 30 plus knots of wind and four metre seas.
We have a bit of a win in the fishing department and manage to fill the freezer! It’s about time.
We arrive in Tonga in good time. It only takes 11 day to do the passage with an average speed of 5.3 knots and most days we were over 8 knots.
Time now to deal with the salt water inside the boat and a bit of a sleep catch up.
Thanks for watching and following along with our adventures.
Wendy and Magnus
