Bad luck...
 
On the way to the deep south, 'Ata'Ata was caught in a heavy thunderstorm and was struck by lightning: this forced a change to the program and a return of 1000 nautical miles to Raiatea, to repair the damages to electricity and the electronics on board. That's also part of the game!



 
Return Point:
 
32° 29' S - 143° 52' W
Society Islands  -  Tuamotu  -  Australes Islands
 

 
 
'Ata'Ata, the little sailboat with a smile left Polynesia in the autumn of 2015...
 
I beg of you a little bit of patience, and then even more, as sorting and writing memoirs of 'Ata'Ata's long cruise around the South Pacific is still a big job. But for my family and friends I'm trying to do my best to put online some excerpts from my logbooks, with the photos that survived the crashes of my computers... :-)
