Well we haven't been doing much today. Felt quite anxious about our charging system last night because it appeared to stop charging before the batteries were full but it does charge up to 94% so we think it's probably ok. There is a fuse which keeps blowing though which is a bit of a concern - however, when we get back to Noumea in a few days we will get the local electrician Gerrard to have a look. Jim emailed him this morning in French and with the aid of our trusty French dictionary managed to get all the technical stuff across.
We had our neighbours, Brian and Claudia who own the American yacht "Skylight" for a cup of tea and fresh Spelt Flour scones baked fresh this morning by Jean. They have sailed from California via Mexico, Marquesas, Tahiti, Tonga, Fiji and Vanuatu. They are also going on to Australia. Great conversation about all sorts of things!!
Weather not so good today - 100% cloud cover with occasional drizzle and a 10-15 knot E-SE. So we've stayed put but will go round to Baie du Prony tomorrow which apparently is beautiful.
Keep watching this space..............!!
