Fantastic overnight sail. Timing the exit and entrance of these passes can be tricky, but the wind was exactly as predicted, light. Just what we needed to leave Tahanea with a little sunlight and enter Fakarava by sunrise. The passes must be timed just right and we nailed it. Started with flying the spinnaker but we were too fast so sailed with the jib only all night! Star were super bright!
