Fairway Bay, Auckland, NZ

We arrived back on Sel Citron in Auckland a week ago, thinking we’d have a couple of weeks at least to get organised and then head to Fiji. But Bruce, our weather guru, identified a weather window for us to leave tomorrow (Friday) – and it doesn’t look like there’s another one in the next couple of weeks. Even then, it might be more of a louvre, than a window!  So, not wanting to have (yet) another crap crossing, we’ve scrambled to get ourselves organised and ready to leave tomorrow.

Verdo, who crewed for us on the trip back from Fiji last year, is going to do the trip up with us. We hope to be there in about a week, and plans for the season are to explore the eastern side of Fiji, including the Lau Group. We’ll be in Fiji until the end of November. Visitors welcome!
