Finally we’ve got all our stuff together and can get ready to leave Papeete! After keeping us waiting for dinghy parts for 2 months (the rubber attachments of the mercury we bought here last year broke off after a few months and we wanted handles instead of the attached cord that had turned out to be far too weak to carry the dinghy) we got the handles we had wished for without further discussions about warranty or having to do the repairs in their shop (not very practical for cruisers to leave the dinghy there and then swim back to the boat…).
At the moment a front is passing over Tahiti, but it looks like we’ll have nice wind to sail to Huahine from tomorrow on
