Had a great week out a Musket some lovely day trip out to Honeymoon and Namotu. It's really starting to heat up with these windless days. Loving Musket, it's very quiet ! Another week of paradise then time to head home.

Quiet few days at Musket after a big week of farewell dinners for Carla and Doug in at Denarau, lots of beers lots of tears ! Caught a walu on the way out, delicious.

Back out at the island for another day playing in the sun. Just had the best swim club, attendance at an all time high with hundreds of tropical fish joining in. Still grinning !

Another stunning day, paddleboarding and snorkeling around honeymoon island. Lovely to have Deb onboard.

Woken up to a glorious morning in Savusavu. Sailed across from Paradise Resort Tavenui yesterday with Moondance. Will hang out here for a few days just enjoying Savusavu.

After an uneventful overnight trip from Vulaga - 15knts and a tuna , we are now happily moored off Paradise Resort , Taveuni. Great to be back on the grid !

Left Vulaga at 11 this morning and have had a lovely sail thus far. 15knts easterly with about 1.5mtre swell. Hope to be in Taveuni midday tomorrow, all great onboard.

When the sun shines in Vulaga it lights up. Had a great snorkel at the blue hole, a giant groper, sharks and played hide and seek with a large octopus, very cool.Going out to the pass this morning to check out slack tide and do one last snorkel. Weather has really settled so looks like we will head north tomorrow. Time to get back on the grid.

Waved goodbye to Bravado yesterday as they head back to Denarau after 2 great weeks in Vulaga despite the weather not really playing the game..hence we played heaps of games! We were planning on heading to Taveuni but Grant got a case of the kava belly so decided not to lift anchor. He is feeling heaps better today and the sun is shinining so will hang out here for a few more days and enjoy.

Another day in paradise. Swimming, snorkeling, skurfing and maybe even a sundowner or two.

Awesome day in Fulaga. Snorkeled the pass,the corals and fish life better than ever, saw about 6 sharks much to Shirls delight! Heading to the beach for some bubbles if the sun stays out.

Happy birthday Carla x

Had a great overnight trip down to Fulaga arriving in 15minutes before the tide changed which was perfect. Awesome to be back as beautiful as ever. Just after we anchored the outrigger sailed over with Solate, Mini and George out for their Saturday fish. A few tears and lots of hugs were had.

(Graham and Damien the canoe looks awesome and well used,will attach photo when we have internet) The front passed over early this morning and the expected rain is here. A great day for games and reading.

Had a great snorkel at Matagi this morning, we were joined by the cutest turtle who didn't seem fazed by us at all. Now anchored in the NW bay Qamea with Bravado and plan to leave for Fulaga in the morning.

Gorgeous spot, anchored at Matagi, water is crystal clear and the sun is trying its best to break through.

Off snorkeling this arvo with the team.

Just on our way into Savusavu, had a wonderful night catching up with Al and Shirl , it's been along time since Blinder and Bravado have been anchored in the same bay. Lots of laughs and delicious fish for dinner.

Will provision and head out for more adventures next week.

Motor fixed and all good to go ! Off on a road trip today to Rakiraki

No Motor, no Makogai, no fish ! But we have great friends and stunning sunsets.

Half way to Makogai motor sailing our motor died so made the call to head back to Nananu-I-thake. Moondance turned around and followed us in, quite a busy sail up through the reefs was happy to get the anchor down.

Hopefully Grant and Doug will sort out problem today, fingers crossed. It's a lovely day here so not all bad.

On the move, heading for Makogai with Moondance and Sharpe Focus.
