Friday, September 21, 2007 - Friday Night Fish Fry
21 September 2007 | Nieafu, Tonga

Fishing for mahi mahi has been especially good lately in Tongan waters and quite a few of the sailboats set up for fishing have caught their share. This evening we had a fish fry onboard the only power boat in the fleet, "Special Blend", a Nordhavn 43 trawler. It was a potluck affair and the food and drink were excellent, as is usually the case. There were three U.S. East Coast boats, two West Coast boats and a Canadian boat from B.C. in attendance. All are planning to land in Opua, New Zealand at the start of the cyclone season in early November. It was fun to compare notes and discuss plans.
All else is well onboard. It will be hard to leave this place.
