Ilot Maitre, New Caledonia
15 October 2012
After a bustling Saturday morning market, especially the fish section, with large colorful lobsters, amongst all the other impressive fish, we motored 6nm to Ilot Maitre. A tiny island with a resort and lots fantastic moorings, all free! The added bonus, that the yacht friendly resort has free wifi, and one can even use the beach barbecues provided.
For us though, the weather progressively turned on us. The winds picked up and even a period of 24 hrs of cold rain! We felt we were completing a cycle, as we are coming to the end of our time on HC, having picked her up in a period of cold rain.
It was a good opportunity to give HC a good tidy.
