Celebrate - Spectacular Sailing to Fiji Islands from Niue!



Arriving at the Oneata Passage we are in the Fiji Islands! What spectacular downwind sailing we had out of Niue with a wing-on-wing sail set and the whisker pole out. We were seeing 14.1kt of speed surfing on the waves! South Pacific Ocean sailing is great! Nexus and Vivo who had left the anchorage just ahead of us were seeing 16 and 15 knots of speed. Coming into Oneata Passage the wind had clocked around and we were doing 7-8kts of speed on a close then reach. Now, we are slowing ourselves to get into Port Denarau in the daylight hours. To celebrate our Fiji arrival Charlie made crab wraps for lunch with capers, olives and cucumbers. So far, fantastic!

Fiji time is currently 10am on Wednesday, May 28th due to the International Date Line.
