Akuna

Adams 35' moored at RMYS, Melbourne Australia. This 1985 steel cruiser/racer has done a number of offshore races in her early days but unfortunately in recent times has been left unused quite a bit. This is all changing now, enjoy

Mark Whitehouse / 25+ Knts South West
Anchored just off Big Mama's Yacht Club.

13:00 Tsunami warning for all Tonga coastal waters. This is a bit of a concern we are anchored in about 12m water. We wait for more news.

13:36 Tsunami warning for all Tonga coastal warnings cancelled. Lucky.

Just doing a few final things on the boat, watching the crews on the Super yachts nearby preparing for the trips. Dinner is planned for Big Mama's tonight last chance for land for a few days. I hear the Mahi Mahi fish is good.
