It was another early morning start to weigh anchor and set sail for Ile Ouen. Sailing wing-on-wing, something we haven't done since our passage from St Lucia to Colombia, we made good progress at around 6 Kts. With a few birds around Roy decided to put out the handline, but no luck. He was, however, determined to have fish for dinner, so, fortunately the freezer was very accomodating. A selection of mahi mahi, tuna and prawns did the trick, accompanied by a glass or two of Château Sainte Marotine, with its powerful and expressive nose and the pallet structure amble and complex - Loosely translated, it smelt like petrol and tasted like vinegar - Only joking - A very nice wine indeed! Pity we can't take wine into Australia, otherwise we'd purchase a few more bottles. We arrived in good time to assess the bay we had chosen for the night, Turtle Bay, but based on the weather conditions, we opted instead for Baie Ouenni / Baie Tioae. It is a very s trange bay, though, and is definitely not protected from the wind as we had hoped, given that it is on the leeside behind the rather large landmass of Ile Ouen. It seems the wind is coming around the southern end of the island and straight up into the anchorage, keeping the yachts parallel to the shoreline. Fortunately we're protected from the sea which is a far better alternative. This evening, while watching the sunset snd seeing another "green flash" , we had the good fortune of having dugongs come within a boat length of Paw Paw's stern. They were very shy at first, staying about 200m off, but eventually curiosity got the better of them and we're glad it did! A day full of natural beauty is topped off with a beautiful full moon tonight.
