Well I have been gone for a while [ left on the 7th] and Bloss was thinking I would never return, but here I am , back to the world of responsibillity [ yuk].
Had a glamour passage across, glassy calm all the way, heap's of fish,hooked into a few marlin and saw them jumping, but never had a hope in hell of landing and adventure a plenty on arrival in the Island's.
Visited lot's of villages setting up contract's for cray's and crab's, spent a bit of time at arguably the best resort in Vanuatu at no expense as the boat owner was good mates with the resort owner.

Had a Cyclone on the 28th March, my Birthday, which had us heading down to Port Sandwich on Malakula to try and secure a good anchorage, we did well, a few other's were less fortunate and ended up on the reef, no lives lost though.
Can't wait for the next trip hopfully before Xmas to take the next boat across and feast on Cray's and get into some Kava again at the Nakamal on Bokissa Island
Pic of typical sea state on trip over and some fish caught on the way, the last pic you can see a bit of shark action on the smaller yellowfin tuna to the left.
