Fun Race in Deboyne Lagoon

Tuesday 24th September.

Still at Nivani Island. Wind 15-20 E-SE.
It has been another busy day with the locals.

In the morning the "dim dims" were taken sailing on the locally built Sailaus. A great experience.

We reciprocated by taking the locals sailing on our boats in the afternoon in a fun race in Deboyne Lagoon. We took 350-400 locals out on the 20 rally yachts and gave them popcorn and cordial etc. Every one had a great time. Salacia took 16 extra "crew" who were really excited when we put up our spinnaker and overtook the fleet.

The day finished with feast/Mumu and prize giving ashore.
