Sail from Hale O Lono to Nanahoa was very nice. Conditions in the Kalohi were light, <15 kts on our port beam. Some puffs up to 22 kts. Flat seas. Taught Morgan how to sail! Mostly sailed until we rounded Lānaʻi, where we began motor sailing. All was good and well until right about a mile outside of the anchorage, our diesel began giving us problems. I think it’s a continuation of our fuel issue saga…engine won’t exceed 1000rpm. Tried a few fixes that have worked in the past to no avail. Will try to work on the engine today to sort this out. Inched our way to the anchorage and anchored in approx. 40 ft of crystal clear water with an endless sandy bottom, so there’s great holding. Took the dingy to shore to explore the pinnacles and dive 🤿🐚🐠 not so many shells this time, but the fish are unbelievably abundant!
