Collected a few more plastic boxes for storing thing s like old bocks and shackles...gave the cockpit a good clean ... and found some locally made frozen curry dishes in the local supermarket that will be just the thing for passage meals..once the fridge is up and going I'll get some to freeze along with bolognese sauce and pasta, risotto and stirfry that I'll pre-prepare and freeze for the trip to Savusavu.
O'wise a bit of tidying up, filling in the preclearance forms for NZ, the pre arrival forms for Fiji , reorganising the lists for what has yet to be done..... On y va!!
