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

All fueled up and ready to go, paper work done with Customs and we are ready to go. A final look at the harbour and we are off.
I have to say I am a little nervous, not having done anything like this before I can feel the butterflies in the stomach. The weather forcasts are for reasonable winds but how does this translate to seas in open water? I guess I am about to find out, will I get sick (I never have in the past), will I enjoy the experience, who knows only time will tell.
We head out through the bay and away from the sheltered waters of Nuku'Alofa and into open water, I cant get over the amazing color of the ocean as soon as it gets a bit of sun. Oh well here goes this could either be fantastic or the longest 10 days of my life.
