Its was a rocky ride. The weather forecast said : winds from the side 10 to 16 knots but it was on the noose 22 to 28 knots. We made it into this lovely bay at 8 am . Unfortunately there is a 2 meter wave breaking at the beach , so no way to get on land in paradise..

WHAT BROKE: small fish got into the toilet and jammed it . Solution : get dirty and take the messy toilet appart and remove stinky dead fish. The ride was so ruff that our mirror cabinet in the bathroom opened up 3 times and spilled pills and creams everywhere Now i got Hamoroid cream in my sunscreen , Viagra in my dental floss and Tiger Balm in the vaseline jar...Oh what fun. Solution : Clean it , fix the doors and try the "new improved" dental floss.

French NKE Multigraph autopilot wind-gismo , set itself into default mode. That means : the display is so bright you cant see anything at night Solution: RTFM (read the fucking (French) manual and re- install EVERY THING.

So were busy for a while and recovering from the slow web in Nuku Hiva . There is no web here , no fone and no TV. I have to try to upload this blog with a broken SSB system. Parts are coming from Switzerland ...in 3 months!!

Apart from that , we are both happy to move again .Sad to leave many new friends behind in Nuku Hiva.

I wonder how long i can take it without news and web.. 3 days max ..i guess what do you think? Knee held up during the bumpy sail...happy.

First sunny and hot, then the fog moves in and the boat gets all wet. You feel the light drizzle
