Comments: I am preparing myself and my boat for the passage to Tahiti beginning tomorrow. Slack (high) tide is about 13:00 tomorrow. I will motor across the lagoon in the morning so I am in position to cross. The Tuamotu Archipelago is going to be a challenge to cross. It will take me two days to navigate through them. By Sunday evening, I should be okay. I have had a good day … finished my punch list, including a dive and finishing off the shark (in a sort of gumbo). It is only about 5 nm from where I am to the passage out of the lagoon. I already have most of the boat ready … I hard boiled a half dozen eggs. I will cook a pasta dish and make a couple of cheese sandwiches in the morning. Sent from my iPhone
