Tuesday 10th August we set sail for the ovenight passage to Huahine. Initially conditions were good with 13 - 16kn E as forecasted. By midnight winds were around 20 knots and we were getting increasing numbers of squalls to 30 knots! As daylight broke we sailed i nto the lee of the island with rain and squalls. We were pleased to enter the pass into flat waters at 0730. We then motored south behind the fringing reef to the SW corner of the island and Baie D'Avea. 
We enjoyed a lovely couple of days in the sheltered bay. On Friday we motored to Fare the main town (near the pass) ready for our passage to Raiatea.
