Arrived South Minerva Reef under cloudy skies and showers, a good excuse to fish outside the reef while waiting for sunny weather... And a good idea too, since we soon got a double hook-up of yellowfin tuna! By 0830, there was a break in the clouds and enough light to go through. We took the northern channel of the pass, reef very visible on starboard, at low tide (using Raoul Island tide table) and headed straight across the lagoon to the anchorage. Note that the light on the rock at the western end does not exist, but there is a new beacon on the east end of the reef, about 6 meter tall, flashing 1"on, 3" off. Biggest crayfish ever!!!! Life's good!
