Pudge & Ann on the bow, looking for coral heads in about 8 feet of water as we motor into the lagoon.

Sweet Aurora, the French hostess greeted and dined with us at the Club Med one evening. Pudge got embarrassed when she posed with him for a picture. He say’s its’ just sunburn!

The Passage to Rarotonga, Southern Cook Islands

            We encountered somewhat rougher seas and higher winds on the passage from Bora Bora to Rarotonga in the Cook Islands. We were very glad to have Pudge aboard to help with watches and handle the sails. Although we are still in the tropics, the weather grew slightly cooler with nighttime temperatures dropping down to 70 degrees and water temperature dropped to 76 degrees.
