Thursday 16 September Tonga Bound

We awoke to no rain. Did I mention it rained the whole tie we were in Samoa? Torrential rain. Continual rain. Wet rain.
We were out of the harbour just as dawn was breaking. Well it was getting lighter so I assume the sun was rising somewhere behind the clouds. As well as no rain, there was no wind so we had to motor until midday when we were south of the island and the wind picked up to 15 knots. From there on we had a wonderful sail; 18 to 20 knots on the beam all the way and no rain. We caught a large female Dorado so plenty for us and to share with friends when we reach Niuatoputapu.
