Saturday, June 16, 2007 - Passage to Moorea
16 June 2007 | Moorea, French Polynesia

There was a swap meet at the marina this morning where I was able to find a replacement anchor for the one I lost in the Tuamotus. Although it is not exactly what I want, it will be fine as a back-up heavy anchor. These swap meets are great for socializing and getting rid of excess baggage.
Sand Dollar weighed anchor at 3 PM, filled the water and fuel tanks, and departed Tahiti for Moorea which is 12 miles to the west. We anchored at Vaiere Bay just before dark and enjoyed a fine dinner in the cockpit. Tomorrow we will sail around to the north and put in at Opunohu Bay. All else is well onboard.
