Nexus - Safe Arrival in Suwarrow



We arrived in Suwarrow at 08:30 Bora Bora time, on a beautiful morning. We had a great passage with lots of wind for a while and good wind coming in. Yesterday afternoon we decided to pull down the gennaker to slow our arrival time to daylight hours, and broke the spinex luff line again, so we'll be repairing that at anchor here. We then moseyed in, and went from first place to fourth, but nobody on board minded very much and it was good to see Vivo get their first line honors for catamarans! At dusk last night, again we simultaneously hooked two Skipjack Tuna, and this time boarded both of them and Brian and Lauren made sushi for dinner! We set anchor this morning amongst many coral heads, but managed to find a white patch of sand to drop the anchor in. Suwarrow is very very remote, and a beautiful atoll which is a national park of the Cook Islands. The water is crystal clear and filled with small black tip sharks! We're looking forward to exploring the island!
