A Broken Engine and Farewell Fiji! EP57

Cyclone season is fast approaching, so plans are being made to move out of the South Pacific for the summer.

We catch up with friends who are heading south to New Zealand, and we get ‘Double Trouble’ ready for the first leg of her journey to the North Pacific. This route is much less travelled by cruising yachts, so we are very excited.

We discover an issue with Dave’s engine, which turns out to be a simple but expensive fix . We have a problem with the DC to DC inverter chargers , which Rob trouble- shoots and sorts like the legend he is.

We find a shortcut to the supermarket and stock up DT for her next ocean crossing.

Finally, it’s time to say ‘moce’ to Fiji and once the immigration and customs formalities are complete, we set sail for Tuvalu .
