Comments:

A week on the island of Nuka Hiva in the Marquesas allowed the crew of Volpaia to clear into Fench Polynesia, reprovison with fresh fruit and vegetables, clean and wash the salt off of Volpaia, do our laundry, refuel with diesel and proprane, and explore the green lush island that we had made our first destination in the South Pacific. Now we are off again to the large and rural atolls of the Tuamotus, a completely different set of islands that we are all eager to explore. For now the sailing is good. It is nice to be on the ocean once again.
