Yesterday morning we checked the grib again and realised that we wouldn’t be able to set out during the following week towards Rapa. As we’re running late already, we decided to go to Raivavae (also one of the Australs) instead. We changed the small yankee against the big genoa (buried underneath all the secured stuff in the forecabin) and set out in the afternoon. Now Pitufa’s heading steadily west with a strong southeasterly behind her. We hope to reach Raivavae in about a week.
