We’re motor-sailing in calm seas and light S-SE winds, toward the Lau Group! The Lau is the most isolated part of Fiji and was just “opened” to cruisers last year. We can’t wait! We met back up with our friends Sophie & Michael, and both our boats are making the overnight passage tonight. We should arrive at the pass to the lagoon right at sunrise, for a safe entry.
Autopilot on and smooth enough to walk around the boat no problem. Beats bashing into the trades! We’re lucky to have this weather window.
