We had a wonderful 3 day passage from Nuku Hiva, Marquesas to Kauehi, Tuamotu's. Of course just when we are getting back into passage making mode the passage is over! A few squalls with winds to 35 knots the first evening and second morning and then perfect weather after, the kind of passage I had promised Nathalie complete with reading a book on the trampoline with small waves and a nice gentle breeze pushing us along at 7 to 8 knots. Le passage de trois jours s'est tres bien passe, un peu le mal de mer au debut mais le dernier jour etait parfait. Nous avons trouve les eaux turqoises des Tuamotus mais bien sur les montagnes volcaniques ont disparues, les atolls sont tres semblables aux Bahamas de loin.... Nous venons juste de mouiller pres du village de Tearavero.
