We are still surveying Ngeruktabel. This is a crazy batch of rock islands. Secret harbors, winding channels, one rock island after the next, many almost the same profile. Easy to get lost. Lots of caves too. We found one filled with fuel cans from WWII today. Lots of wrecks here to. We snorkeled an unidentifiable shallow wreck while running soundings today. Looked old. We've been seeing lightning for the past two nights but at least we're not hearing it tonight.

Our chain is supposed to arrive next week. We can't wait to setup our own mooring. Much better than getting kicked out of the harbor when the weather turns. That said, some of the hurricane holes we've found are much better than the harbor.
