Manihi again






First night we went to an anchorage, where we anchored in some 36 feet of water and where we were surrounded by stonehard coralheads, which had grown up to just below the surface.
Later we were towed into the tiny harbour, where we met Roland and his family. At his house we could get access to the internet. People are friendly here and children love to drop by for a “chat”, a cup of juice or some bisquits.
When leaving the atoll, nobody could tell us, at what time we could expect slack, so later we found us stuck for more than 1 hour in the counter current of the raising tide, until a friendly soul tugged us out.
