Bula from Fiji

Bula from Fiji! An exciting night tonight as Lia Fal is nearing Cape Washington so we’re looking forward to seeing Sean (well done Sean – good to hear you on the radio tonight), Yohann, Steve (bula Steve welcome to the crew), Ainara and Richard tomorrow afternoon if the fair winds continue. And Ratbag hopefully in port before the weekend. We had a great trip up after a bit of a rough start but all the fish got away (and one took your fishing rod Derek – but you’ll be pleased to hear that it was a huge fish).
