Raratonga - we took some damage to our nets and jib furler on the way from Bora-Bora. Noah (from Serenus) helped us get the forestay off to repair the damage to the furler.



Dinner with Serenus on board Gillaroo

Aitutaki. We had to come in through this narrow pass to get to the harbour at Aitutaki. It was almost a mile long and just 10 yards wide in some places. We grounded on a sand bank on the way in but were able to reverse and get past it with no damage. On the way out we were followed out by one of the barges unloading from the ship out beyond the reef.
